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
backgroundGenetic and environmental factors contribute to the development of celiac disease (CD), but specific genetic predisposing factors remain poorly understood. One candidate is allele 2 of the hs1.2 enhancer within the immunoglobulin heavy chain region. In humans, there are four possible alleles and a previous study of an Italian cohort demonstrated a significantly increased frequency of allele 2 in patients with CD.
aimsThe purpose of the current study was to determine if a similar association between allele 2 and CD exists in an American population from Dayton, OH.
methodsSubjects were screened for CD via esophagogastroduodenoscopy with duodenal biopsy. All biopsies were microscopically scored using a modified Marsh-Oberhuber classification. DNA was isolated from patients' buccal cells for hs1.2 genotype analysis using PCR.
resultsUnlike the Italian cohort, allele 2 frequency was not significantly different in patients with histopathologic evidence of CD compared to patients without such evidence. However, our patient population as a whole demonstrated a significantly increased allele 2 frequency when compared to that previously reported within diverse ethnic populations.
conclusionsSince our comparative control patients do not necessarily reflect a healthy control population, an overall increase in allele 2 may reflect an association between allele 2 of the hs1.2 enhancer and a spectrum of gastrointestinal disorders.
