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 aim of this study is to investigate the association of IκBα promoter polymorphisms with the development of Multiple Sclerosis (MS) disease in Iranian population. One hundred and fifty patients with MS along with 150 unrelated healthy controls were enrolled in this study. The IκBα -881A/G (rs3138053), -826C/T (rs2233406) and -519C/T (rs2233408) polymorphisms were determined by the polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism method. This study demonstrated that the genotype frequencies of IκBα -881A/G and -826T/T, and allele frequencies of IκBα-881G were significantly higher in patients with MS with respect to as compared to the controls. We also found that the estimated haplotype frequency of IκBα promoter -881G-826T-519C was significantly increased in the patient with MS in comparison with that of the healthy individuals. This study reveals that polymorphisms in the IκBα promoter (-881 A/G, -826 C/T) are strongly associated with the susceptibility of Iranian MS patients.
