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

The manifestation of the monogenic disease cystic fibrosis results from the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR)-mediated basic defect defined as an altered chloride transport. An association study using contrasting endophenotypes was conducted with 17 markers to allow fine-mapping of a previously reported association signal within the CLCA gene cluster. Markers were analyzed for association with the manifestation of the basic defect in the patient population of the European CF Twin and Sibling Study composed of 101 families with a total of 171 patients. The manifestation of the basic defect was associated with markers rs11807298-rs6684219, encompassing the CLCA4 promoter (Praw=0.0013; Pcorr=0.0157). Refined analysis of the CLCA4 association signal among F508del homozygous CF patients who exhibit either no, CFTR-mediated or Ca(2+)-mediated residual chloride conductance revealed that allele distributions for markers rs11807298-rs113894048-rs6684219 differed significantly among these three patient groups. Our data strongly argue that CLCA4 modulates the capability to express residual chloride secretion in colonic tissue. The latter finding is in consistency with the now favored role of the CLCA proteins in signal transduction in epithelial cells.
