Association of TFAP2A gene polymorphism with susceptibility to non-syndromic cleft lip with or without palate risk in south Indian 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
The aetiology of non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is complex involving multiple interacting genes and environmental factors. The primary objective of the present study was to investigate the role of TFAP2A gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the pathogenesis of NSCL/P. In this study, 173 unrelated NSCL/P patients and 176 controls without clefts were genotyped with TFAP2A rs1675414 (Exon 1), rs3798691 (Intron 1), and rs303050 (Intron 4) variants by allele-specific amplification using the KASPar SNP genotyping system. The method of multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) was used to analyze gene-gene interactions. TFAP2A polymorphisms are not found to be associated with non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) at either the genotype or allele levels. No linkage disequilibrium (LD) was found between TFAP2A variants. MDR analysis did not show a significant effect of the TFAP2A gene polymorphisms on susceptibility to NSCL/P (p > 0.05). These results suggest that the analyzed variations in TFAP2A gene might not be associated with NSCL/P pathogenesis in south Indian population.
