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

Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Different genetic variants including the TNF -308G/A polymorphism are associated with RA susceptibility. However, these findings have not been replicated in all populations. The aim of this study was to determine whether the TNF -1031T/C (rs1799964), -376G/A (rs1800750), -308G/A (rs1800629) -238G/A (rs361525), and TNFR1 -609G/T polymorphisms are associated with RA susceptibility in a sample of Mexican patients. Our study included 499 patients with RA and 492 healthy controls. The genotypes of the TNF polymorphisms were obtained using TaqMan assay. The genotype and allele frequencies of the TNF -1031T/C, -376G/A, -308G/A, -238G/A, and TNFR1 -609G/T polymorphisms were similar among RA cases versus healthy controls, and no association with RA susceptibility was identified. Our results suggest that the TNF -1031T/C, -376G/A, -308G/A, -238G/A, and TNFR1 -609G/T polymorphisms are not associated with RA susceptibility in a sample of Mexican patients.
