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

We performed a meta-analysis to determine whether combined evidence shows an association between HLA-B*51 and HLA-B*52 alleles and TNF-α-308A/G polymorphism and the susceptibility to Takayasu arteritis (TA). Relevant articles dated November 2015 were acquired from the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane databases. The number of genotypes and/or alleles for HLA-B*51 and HLA-B*52 alleles and TNF-α-308 A/G polymorphism in cases and control subjects was extracted, and statistical analysis was conducted using STATA 11.2 software. We included 20 studies with 1864 TA patients and 6973 controls. The HLA-B*52 allele was found to be associated with TA (pooled OR 3.91, 95 % CI 3.22-4.74, P < 0.0001). The meta-analysis of TNF-α-308 A/G polymorphism for the A allele vs. G allele (P = 0.006) and AA + AG vs. GG (P = 0.023) revealed a significant association with TA. However, we did not find that the HLA-B*51 allele was associated with TA. This meta-analysis demonstrated that the HLA-B*52 allele and TNF-α-308 A/G polymorphism may contribute to TA susceptibility.
