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

backgroundInterleukin-22 (IL-22) is a member of the IL-10 family of anti-inflammatory cytokines that mediates epithelial immunity. IL-22 expression was found to be increased in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). Whether genetic polymorphisms of IL-22 also influence UC risk is still unknown. The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between the IL-22 gene polymorphisms (-429 C/T, +1046 T/A and +1995 A/C) and the risk of UC in Chinese Han patients.

methodsThis hospital-based case-control study comprised 180 patients with UC and 180 age- and gender-matched controls. Genotypes of 3 common polymorphisms of the IL-22 gene were determined by fluorogenic 5' exonuclease assays (TaqMan).

resultsPatients with UC had a significantly higher frequency of IL-22 -429 TT genotype [odds ratio (OR) =2.43, 95% confidence interval (CI) =1.35, 4.37; P=0.003] and -429 T allele (OR =1.54, 95% CI=1.14, 2.07; P=0.004) than controls. The findings are still emphatic by the Bonferroni correction. The IL-22+1046 T/A and IL-22+1995 A/C gene polymorphisms were not associated with a risk of UC. When stratifying by clinical type, location and disease severity of UC, no significant differences were found in any groups.

conclusionThis is the first study to provide evidence for an association of IL-22 -429 C/T gene polymorphisms with UC risk. Additional well-designed large studies were required for the validation of our results.
