A novel Dock8 gene mutation confers diabetogenic susceptibility in the LEW.1AR1/Ztm-iddm rat, an animal model of human type 1 diabetes.
Article in Diabetologia, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
aims/hypothesisThe LEW.1AR1-iddm rat, an animal model of human type 1 diabetes, arose through a spontaneous mutation within the inbred strain LEW.1AR1. A susceptibility locus (Iddm8) on rat chromosome 1 (RNO1) has been identified previously, which is accompanied by autoimmune diabetes and the additional phenotype of a variable CD3(+) T cell frequency.
methodsIn the present study we characterised the Iddm8 region on RNO1 in backcross strains using the genetically divergent Brown Norway (BN) and Paris (PAR) rats. Candidate genes of the Iddm8 region were sequenced for mutation analysis.
resultsThe Iddm8 region could be subdivided by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analyses. In the first region, a mutation in exon 44 of the Dock8 gene was identified resulting in an amino acid exchange in the protein from glutamine to glutamate. This exchange is unique for the LEW.1AR1-iddm rat. In the second region, a SNP was detected in exon 11 of the Vwa2 gene with an exchange from arginine to tryptophan. This SNP is also present in other rat strains. CONCLUSIONS/
interpretationThe Dock8 mutation gave rise to a new type 1 diabetes rat model with very close similarity to type 1 diabetes in humans, providing a deepened insight into the impact of genes involved in diabetes development.
