Lack of the Association of the PTPN22 C1858T Gene Polymorphism With Susceptibility to Familial Mediterranean Fever.
Article in Archives of rheumatology, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
objectivesThis study aims to investigate whether the protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22) C1858T gene polymorphism plays a role in the pathogenesis of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) through T-lymphocyte activation. PATIENTS AND
methodsWe conducted a case-control study with 180 FMF patients (68 males, 112 females; mean age 38.2±1.6 years; range 16 to 81 years) and 184 healthy controls (86 males, 98 females; mean age 32.9±9.2 years; range 18 to 58 years). The PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism (rs2476601) was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism. In patients with FMF, clinical features, disease severity score, the frequencies of amyloidosis, positive family history, and Mediterranean fever gene mutations were determined.
resultsThe frequencies of heterozygous genotype (CT) were 4.5% in FMF patients and 2.8% in healthy controls, respectively. The frequencies of polymorphic homozygous genotypes (TT) were 0.5% in both FMF patients and healthy controls. There were no statistically significant differences in the frequencies of CT and TT genotypes between FMF patients and healthy controls (odds ratio: 1.65, 95% confidence interval: 0.53-5.14, p>0.05 for CT genotype). The frequencies of clinical features, sex, amyloidosis, positive family history, Mediterranean fever gene mutations, and disease severity score were not significantly different between the patients.
conclusionThe distribution of PTPN22 C1858T polymorphism did not reveal any association with FMF in a Turkish population.
