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

Leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are expressed mostly on myelomonocytic cells where they are mediators of immunological tolerance. Two LILR genes, LILRA3 and LILRA6, exhibit marked copy number variation. We assessed the contribution of these genes to atopic dermatitis (AD) by analysing transmission in 378 AD families. The data indicated that copies of LILRA6 were over-transmitted to affected patients. They are consistent with a contribution of LILR genes to AD. They could affect the equilibrium between activating and inhibitory signals in the immune response.
