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

introductionThe immunoglobulin-like molecules intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) are responsible for endothelial cell-leukocyte adhesion followed by transmigration of leukocytes through the endothelial cell lining. The aim of this study was to examine the correlation between polymorphisms in ICAM1 and VCAM1 genes and histopathological changes in transplanted kidney biopsies. MATERIAL AND

methodsThe study enrolled 82 Caucasian renal transplant recipients (48 males, 34 females). Genotyping of the rs5498 ICAM1 and the rs1041163 and rs3170794 VCAM1 gene polymorphisms was performed using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Biopsies were performed in 82 patients and were reviewed by a renal pathologist and the Banff working classification criteria were used.

resultsThere were no significant associations between VCAM gene polymorphisms and histopathological changes in kidney allograft biopsies. ICAM1 gene polymorphism was associated with the grade of interstitial fibrosis. Interstitial fibrosis was more severe among individuals with the G allele than those with the A allele (AA vs. GG+AG, p = 0.017). There were no statistically significant associations between ICAM1 gene polymorphism and other histopathological changes in kidney allograft biopsies.

conclusionsThe results of our study suggest that rs5498 ICAM1 gene polymorphism is associated with the grade of interstitial fibrosis in kidney recipients and the changes are more severe in patients with the G allele.
