Investigation of deletion of 22pb in KIR2DS4 gene in a population of southern Brazil.
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
backgroundThe aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of full-length and deleted variants of KIR2DS4 in a population of southern Brazil and compare the results with other populations, as well as comparing two techniques, PCR-SSP and PCR-SSO, for typing of variants.
methods258 individuals from southern Brazil were analysed by PCR-SSO ("polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific oligonucleotides", One Lambda, Inc., Canoga Park, CA), of which 161 were also analysed by PCR-SSP.
resultsThe study population showed similarities with other Caucasian populations; 46.5% of individuals had only KIR2DS4 variants, 21.3% had the full-length form and 25.1% had both forms.
conclusionThe frequencies found in both groups (genotyped by PCR-SSP and PCR-SSO) were 100% concordant.
