Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the PLA2R1 gene are associated with systemic lupus erythematosus and lupus nephritis in a Chinese Han population.

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
Several novel susceptibility genes for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and other nephropathy have been identified in recent genome-wide association studies. Membranous nephropathy is the most common diagnosis in adults with the nephrotic syndrome, and both idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) and lupus nephritis (LN) are autoimmune diseases of the kidney; they may share common disease mechanisms that overlap with genetic susceptibility. Therefore, we sought to identify genetic variants associated with IMN in SLE/LN. The PLA2R1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms rs4664308, rs3828323, rs3792189, and rs3792192 were genotyped in a cohort of 1247 SLE patients and 1174 healthy controls, using the Sequenom MassArray system method. PLA2R1 displayed a nominally significantly genetic association with SLE [for rs4664308, P = 0.02, odds ratio (OR) 1.16, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.02-1.31; for rs3792192, P = 7.9 × 10(-3), OR 1.18, 95 % CI 1.05-1.34] and LN (for rs4664308, P = 0.04). The frequencies of genotypes of rs3792189 and rs3828323 were significantly different between the SLE patients and controls (all P < 0.05), and the haplotype (AA) formed by rs3792189 and rs3792192 was associated with SLE (P = 0.019). This was the first study to reveal that PLA2R1 polymorphisms were associated with SLE/LN patients, indicating that PLA2R1 might be a susceptibility gene for SLE/LN in a Chinese Han population.
