Fas/FasL gene polymorphism in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis in Turkish population.
Article in Journal of endocrinological investigation, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
objectiveHashimoto's disease is a polygenic disorder with complex etiopathogenesis. Apoptosis is proposed as one of its mechanisms. The Fas/Fas ligand cascade represents a major pathway initiating apoptosis. This study aims to evaluate the influence of Fas and FasL gene polymorphism in Hashimoto's thyroiditis in Turkish population. MATERIALS AND
methodsA total of 112 patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis and 112 cases of healthy control people were included in this study. The evaluation of genotype for Fas -670 A/G and FasL 843 C/T gene polymorphism was performed by using PCR-RFLP method.
resultsThe FAS genotype and gene allele frequency distribution did differ between the control group (AA 36.6 %, AG 50.0 %, GG 13.4 %, A 61.6 %, G 38.4 %) and the Hashimoto's thyroiditis patients (AA 21.4 %, AG 50.9 %, GG 27.7 %, A 46.9 %, G 53.1 %) (p < 0.01). The evaluation of FasL genotype and gene allele frequency did not show statistically significant difference between the patient group (CC 27.7 %, CT 45.5 %, TT 26.8 %, C 50.4 %, T 49.6 %) and control group (CC 33.9 %, CT 44.6 %, TT 21,4 %, C 56.3 %, T 43.8 %) (p > 0.05).
conclusionsGene polymorphism of Fas and G allele frequency may play a role in the regulation of apoptosis in thyroid autoimmune disorders. There is a need for further studies to clarify the genetic role of apoptosis in HT.
