Correlation of CCR5 and NLRP3 gene polymorphisms with renal damage due to hepatitis C virus-related cryoglobulinemia.
Article in Experimental and therapeutic medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Correlation of C-C chemokine receptor type 5 (CCR5) and NACHT, LRR and PYD domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) gene polymorphisms with renal damage due to hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related cryoglobulinemia were investigated. The 1:1 matched case-control study design was adopted, 171 patients with renal damage due to HCV-related cryoglobulinemia were selected as the case group, and 171 patients without renal damage were selected as the control group. Polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) analysis was used to detect the polymorphisms of locus rs1799987A/G in CCR5 gene and locus rs35829419A/C in NLRP3 gene of 171 pairs of HCV patients. SPSS 20.0 software was used for logistic regression analysis, and genetics package of the R programming language for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test. The frequencies of locus rs1799987A/G in CCR5 gene in the case group were 48.0 and 52.0%, while those in the control group were 47.9 and 52.1%; the frequencies of locus rs35829419A/C in NLRP3 gene were 55.8 and 44.2%, while those in the control group were 55.3 and 44.7%. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the distribution of CCR5 gene polymorphism in the case group was statistically different from that in the control group (P<0.05), which had a statistical correlation with the renal damage due to HCV-related cryoglobulinemia (P<0.05). At rs1799987, GG genotype was compared with AA genotype, and AG genotype was compared with AA genotype; the results showed that the renal damage due to HCV-related cryoglobulinemia was not decreased [odds ratio (OR) = 0.91, 95% confidence interval (95% CI): 0.47-1.54; OR = 0.89, 95% CI: 0.49-1.31]. The negative analysis model of the GG genotype reduced the risk of renal damage due to HCV-related cryoglobulinemia remarkably (OR = 0.62, 95% CI: 0.39-0.98). Rs1799987A/G and gene polymorphism of CCR5 may be associated with renal damage due to HCV-related cryoglobulinemia, and the carriage of G allele may lower the incidence rate of the disease, while rs35829419A/C in NLRP3 has no correlation with renal damage due to HCV-related cryoglobulinemia.
