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

Numerous studies have investigated the association between the interleukin (IL)-10 promoter haplotype GCC/ATA (at the - 1082, - 819 and - 592 positions of the IL-10 gene) polymorphism and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) risk, but the results were inconsistent. We performed the current meta-analysis to assess precisely the association by comparing the GCC haplotype with the ATA haplotype. A literature search was conducted using Pubmed and Web of Science databases. Twelve studies including 1765 cases and 2444 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The overall odds ratios (total and stratified by ethnicity: Asian or Caucasian) were 1.042 (95 % confidence interval [CI] 0.893-1.216; p = 0.599), 0.790 (95 % CI 0.528-1.182; p = 0.251), and 1.093 (95 % CI 0.919-1.300; p = 0.317), respectively. The results indicated that the GCC haplotype revealed no statistically significant association with SLE risk; thus, the haplotype GCC/ATA polymorphism of the IL-10 promoter is not likely to be involved in SLE susceptibility.
