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

Uveitis is a devastating ocular disease that causes blindness. Our previous studies have achieved great advancements in depicting the genetic profiles of uveitis regarding complement pathway genes. This study aimed to provide additional insights into this interest by testing the "central" factor of the complement system, C3 gene variants, in two uveitis entities. Eight haplotype-tagging SNPs of C3 gene were genotyped in 141 anterior uveitis (AU), 158 non-infectious intermediate and posterior uveitis (NIPU) and 293 controls. The results showed that none of the tagging SNPs had a significant association with uveitis (P > 0.05), either in the global uveitis or subtypes. Although rs428453 showed a nominal association with NIPU subtype in the recessive model (P = 0.042), the P value could not withstand the Bonferroni correction (P
