Polymorphisms of ICAM-1 and IL-6 genes related to endometriosis in a sample of Brazilian women.
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
purposeThis study investigated the possibility of K469E (rs5498) and G241R (rs1799969) polymorphisms, in ICAM-1 gene, and G634C (rs1800796), in IL-6 gene, being associated with the occurrence of endometriosis in a sample of Brazilian women.
methodsWe genotyped 200 women (100 in control group and 100 in endometriosis group) by PCR-RFLP technique for G634C, K469E, and G241R polymorphisms.
resultsNo significant difference was observed in genotypic frequency between control and endometriosis groups for G634C and K469E polymorphisms (p = 0.61 and p = 0.22, respectively). In addition, no significant difference between stages I-II and III-IV of the disease was found for both SNPs (p = 0.63 and p = 0.24, respectively). All individuals were wild homozygotes for G241R polymorphism.
conclusionThis study suggests that polymorphisms K469E, G241R, and G634C are not associated with increased susceptibility to endometriosis in Brazilian women.
