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

Entry of HIV virus into cells is mediated by chemokine receptors. Genetic variations in chemokine receptors have been shown to modulate susceptibility to HIV infection and disease course. In this study, the frequencies of CCR5 (CCR5-Δ32), CCR2 (CCR2-64I), and SDF-1 (SDF-1-3') gene polymorphisms were determined in a Jordanian population. A total of 540 subjects were randomly selected from different regions of Jordan (South, Middle, and North). Six individuals were found to carry the CCR5-Δ32 allele (0.6%) and only in the heterozygous genotype. The frequencies of CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A were 17.5% and 34.2%, respectively. In addition, no significant difference in the distribution of the examined polymorphisms among different regions of Jordan was detected. In conclusion, the CCR5-Δ32 allele is rare, whereas the CCR2-64I and SDF1-3'A alleles are common among Jordanians.
