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

The tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 4 (TNFSF4) gene encodes a vital co-stimulatory molecule of the immune system and has been identified as a susceptibility locus for systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic sclerosis, and primary Sjögren's syndrome. However, the association of TNFSF4 polymorphisms with neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD), an inflammatory, demyelinating autoimmune disease of the central nervous system, has not yet been investigated. To evaluate whether TNFSF4 polymorphisms contribute to risk of NMOSD, four single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs1234315, rs2205960, rs704840, and rs844648) were selected and genotyped in a cohort of 312 patients with NMOSD and 487 healthy controls. Our study showed that rs844648 was associated with an increased risk of NMOSD, according to the allelic model (OR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.06-1.59, P = 0.011, Pcorr = 0.044). Significant associations of rs844648 (OR = 1.67, 95% CI 1.17-2.38, P = 0.005, Pcorr = 0.02) and rs704840 (OR = 1.75, 95% CI 1.17-2.63, P = 0.007, Pcorr = 0.027) with NMOSD occurrence were also observed under the recessive model. Moreover, linkage disequilibrium analysis revealed two blocks within TNFSF4; in one block, the haplotype A
