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

In a case-control association study with 3716 North Americans of Hispanic descent and 4867 North Americans of European descent, we show that the associations of rs17849502 (NCF2 His-389 → Gln) and rs13306575 (NCF2 Arg-395 → Trp) with systemic lupus erythematosus are independent. We have shown that His-389 → Gln disrupts the binding of NCF2 to the ZF domain of VAV1, resulting in decreased NADPH oxidase activity. With respect to Arg-395 → Trp, using protein docking and structure analyses, we provide a model for the involvement of this mutation in the structure and function of the NADPH oxidase complex. This model assigns a central role to Arg-395 in the structure and stability of the quaternary NCF2/NCF4/VAV1/RAC1 NADPH oxidase complex. Arg-395 stabilizes the C-terminal tail of NCF4 and the conformation of NCF2 loop 395-402, which in turn stabilize the evolutionarily conserved interactions of NCF2/NCF4 with the DH domain of VAV1 and RAC1 region 120-137. Our findings are consistent with the high levels of conservation of all of the residues involved in these interactions.
