Transcription efficiency of different chicken mannose-binding lectin promoter alleles.
Article in Immunogenetics, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The serum collectin mannose-binding lectin (MBL) plays a major role in innate immunity by activation of the lectin complement pathway or by acting as an opsonin. The serum levels of human and animal MBL are associated with susceptibility to a wide range of infections, and the variation of MBL in serum is genetically determined. In the chicken, 14 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have so far been found in the MBL promoter region. In this study, the transcription activity of a 670-bp promoter region covering all 14 SNPs from the four MBL promoter alleles A1 to A4 was assessed using a dual-luciferase assay. Of the analysed alleles, A1 showed the highest transcription activity although this allele is frequently found in chickens with low MBL mRNA expression.
