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

Genetic variants with extreme allele frequency differences (EAFD) may underlie some human health disparities across populations. To identify EAFD loci, we systematically analyzed and characterized 81 million genomic variants from 2504 unrelated individuals of 26 world populations (phase III of the 1000 Genomes Project). Our analyses revealed a total of 434 genes, 15 pathways, and 18 diseases and traits influenced by EAFD variants from five continental populations. They included known EAFD genes, such as LCT (lactose tolerance), SLC24A5 (skin pigmentation), and EDAR (hair morphology). We found many novel EAFD genes, including TBC1D2B (autophagy mediator), TRIM40 (gastrointestinal inflammatory regulator), KRT71, KRT75, KRT83, and KRTAP10-1 (hair and epithelial keratin synthesis), PIK3R3 (insulin receptor interaction), DARS (neurological disorders), and NACA2 (skin inflammatory response). Our results also showed four complex diseases significantly associated with EAFD loci, including asthma (adjusted enrichment P = 4 × 10
