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

backgroundGraves ophthalmopathy (GO) is a form of autoimmune thyroid disease commonly found in approximately 25-50% patients with Graves' disease. Both the thyroid-specific genes and immune-modulating genes are involved in susceptibility to GO. However, even though FCRL3 polymorphisms were also autoimmune-associated genes, no study has been performed regarding the association of FCRL3 with GO. Therefore, the objective of the current study was to conduct a basic case-control study in a Chinese population. METHODS AND MATERIALS: Seven SNPs were selected in this case-control study and 577 GD patients and 608 controls were recruited. Odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were used to assess the association between susceptibility of GO and FCRL3 polymorphisms with Stata software (Version 11.0, Stata Corp LP, USA).

resultsThe case-control analysis showed that three polymorphisms, FCRL3_3C, FCRL3_5C, FCRL3_6A, were significantly associated with raised risk of GO in a Chinese Han population in the allelic model [OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.09-1.51, P = 0.003; OR = 1.26, 95% CI: 1.07-1.48, P = 0.005; OR = 1.25, 95% CI: 1.06-1.47, P = 0.007].

conclusionsThis case-control analysis confirmed that the FCRL3_3, FCRL3_5 and FCRL3_6 polymorphisms were associated with significantly increased risk of GO in a Chinese population.
