Association between rs6759298 and Ankylosing Spondylitis in Iranian Population.

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
backgroundAnkylosing Spondylitis (AS) is a chronic autoinflammatory Spondyloarthropathy (SpA) which is characterized by sacroiliitis, which progresses to the axial skeleton. It seems that non-Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) and also HLA-B27 are associated with the susceptibility and pathogenesis of the disease. The recent Ge-nome-Wide Association Studies (GWASs) have reported intergenic rs6759298 to be associated with AS etiology. The aim of this study was investigation of the rs6759298 polymorphism in Iranian AS patients. In addition, probable correlations with clinical indices and manifestations were considered.
methodsThis study included 403 patients with AS. The control group consisted of 506 healthy individuals who were matched for sex, age, and ethnicity with AS group. Genotyping of rs6759298 was determined using the Amplification-Refractory Mutation System-Polymerase Chain Reaction (ARMS-PCR).
resultsThe GG genotype and G allele were found to be significantly more prevalent in the patient group in comparison to the control group [(p=2×10
conclusionNo associations were found between patients with three genotypes and any disease manifestations or clinical indices. This investigation confirmed a highly significant association of rs6759298 with disease susceptibility, with no effect on disease progress or clinical presentations. Since rs6759298 belongs to the
