TLR-6 SNP P249S is associated with healthy aging in nonsmoking Eastern European Caucasians - A cohort study.
Article in Immunity & ageing : I & A, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundTo investigate mechanisms that determine healthy aging is of major interest in the modern world marked by longer life expectancies. In addition to lifestyle and environmental factors genetic factors also play an important role in aging phenotypes. The aged immune system is characterized by a chronic micro-inflammation, known as inflamm-aging, that is suspected to trigger the onset of age-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's disease, cancer, and Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 (DMT2). We have recently shown that a Toll-like receptor 6 variant (P249S) is associated with susceptibility to cardiovascular disease and speculated that this variant may also be associated with healthy aging in general by decreasing the process of inflamm-aging.
resultsAnalyzing the PolSenior cohort we show here that nonsmoking S allele carriers are significantly protected from age-related diseases (P = 0.008, OR: 0.654). This association depends not only on the association with cardiovascular diseases (P = 0.018, OR: 0.483) for homozygous S allele carriers, but is also driven by a protection from Diabetes Mellitus type 2 (P = 0.010, OR: 0.486) for S allele carriers. In addition we detect a trend but no significant association of this allele with inflamm-aging in terms of baseline IL-6 levels.
conclusionWe confirm our previous finding of the TLR-6 249S variant to be protective regarding cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, we present first evidence of TLR-6 249S being involved in DMT2 susceptibility and may be in general associated with healthy aging possibly by reducing the process of inflamm-aging.
