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

Psoriasis is a common human skin disease whereby abnormal production of inflammatory mediators is believed to play an important role in its pathogenesis. The IL12B gene, which encodes the shared IL-12p40 subunit in two cytokines, IL-12 and IL-23, and the IL23R gene, which encodes a subunit of the receptor for IL-23, were identified as psoriasis-susceptibility genetic factors in recent candidate gene and genome-wide association studies of Chinese and Europeans. Since there are significant differences in the incidence of psoriasis between Europeans and Japanese suggesting a genetic ethnic effect, we examined the association of IL12B and IL23R gene polymorphisms with psoriasis in a cohort of Japanese. In this study, we genotyped two SNPs (rs3212227 and rs6887695) in the IL12B gene and one SNP (rs11209026) in the IL23R gene using 560 Japanese psoriasis cases and 560 controls and compared our results with those previously published for Europeans and Asians. Our study showed significant associations between psoriasis and both IL12B gene SNPs, rs3212227 (odds ratio (OR) = 1.35, P = 4.94E-04) and rs6887695 (OR = 1.32, P = 2.00E-03), but no significant association between psoriasis and the IL23R SNP, rs11209026. Furthermore, a significant haplotype association was found for the IL12B gene protective haplotype C-C (OR = 0.71, P = 1.84E-04) in Japanese, as previously elucidated in the studies of European ancestry.
