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

Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are one of the most commonly used asthma therapies and have highly variable treatment success. Polymorphisms in TBX21, a gene important for the biological action of corticosteroids, could be associated with treatment response in asthmatics. We genotyped for rs9910408 in TBX21 in 208 adult asthmatic patients, treated at least 3 years with ICS. Polymorphism rs9910408 was associated with response to ICS treatment. When treatment success was assessed by a decrease in bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR), the frequency of AA genotype was significantly higher in good responders (P = 0.049). This genotype related response was even more evident in the subgroups of non-smokers (P = 0.008) and in non-atopic patients (P = 0.009). AA genotype was overrepresented among good responders according to changes in FEV1 in the subgroups of non-smokers (P = 0.013) and in non-atopic patients (P = 0.048). Our results showed that treatment response to ICS, assessed as changes in BHR and FEV1, is associated with TBX21.
