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

Previous studies performed in Kenya have suggested that the C868T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in CD4 increases the risk of HIV-1 acquisition; however, no relevant study has been conducted in China. To evaluate the influence of this SNP on risk of HIV-1 infection in a Chinese population, the CD4 genotype was determined by DNA sequencing in 101 HIV-1 patients and 102 healthy controls. No significant differences in the genotype and allele distributions of this polymorphism were observed among the patient and control groups. Additionally, binary logistic regression analyses adjusted by age and gender revealed that the C868T polymorphism was not associated with risk of HIV-1 infection. Furthermore, when analyses of genotype and allele frequencies were stratified by gender, similar nonsignificant results were found. Our study demonstrates a null association between the CD4 C868T polymorphism and an individual's susceptibility of HIV-1 acquisition in a Chinese population. Further studies are warranted to confirm these results.
