1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND

objectivesThe HLA system plays a central role in the distinction between self antigens and non-self antigens. This study aimed to investigate the association between HLA genes and the outcomes of patients with ANCA-associated vasculitis (AAV). DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS: This study recruited 152 consecutive Chinese patients with AAV. The predictive value of the HLA alleles for renal outcome, response to treatment, and all-cause mortality were analyzed.

resultsThe proportion of patients with treatment failure was significantly higher in DRB1*0405-positive patients than in DRB1*0405-negative patients (41.7% versus 12.9%; P=0.008; corrected P=0.02). After adjusting for the other potential predictors, DRB1*0405 was still an independent predictor for the poor response to treatment (hazard ratio [HR], 5.91; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.23-28.52; P=0.03). Renal survival was significantly worse in patients with DRB1*0405 than those without DRB1*0405 (P<0.001; corrected P<0.001). After adjusting for the other potential predictors, DRB1*0405 was still an independent predictor for ESRD (HR, 5.50; 95% CI, 2.18-13.88; P<0.001). The probability of all-cause mortality in patients with DPB1*0402 was significantly higher than those without DPB1*0402 (P=0.02; corrected P=0.04). After adjusting for the other potential predictors, DPB1*0402 was still an independent predictor for all-cause mortality (HR, 2.52; 95% CI, 1.21-5.28; P=0.01).

conclusionsIn AAV patients, DRB1*0405 might be an independent risk factor for the poor response to treatment and the deterioration of renal function, whereas DPB1*0402 might be an independent risk factor for all-cause mortality.
