rs4246215 is targeted by hsa-miR1236 to regulate FEN1 expression but is not associated with Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy.
Article in PloS one, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Fuchs' Endothelial Corneal Dystrophy (FECD) is a genetically complex disorder that affects individuals above 40 years of age; molecular pathogenesis of its associated genes is poorly understood. This study aims at assessing the association of flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) polymorphisms, c.-69G>A (rs174538) and c.4150G>T (rs4246215) with FECD. Comet assay analysis reaffirmed that endogenous DNA damage was greater in FECD individuals. However, genetic analysis in 79 FECD patients and 234 unrelated control individuals prove that both the FEN1 polymorphisms, c.-69G>A (rs174538) and c.4150G>T (rs4246215), failed to show any genetic association with the FECD disease phenotype. In silico analysis and luciferase reporter assay identified 'G' allele of the 3'UTR located FEN1 polymorphism c.4150G>T as the target for binding of hsa-miR-1236-3p. This study indicates that although FEN1 polymorphisms, c.-69G>A (rs174538) and c.4150G>T (rs4246215) are not genetically associated with FECD, its transcript regulation reported in other diseases such as lung cancer which are genetically associated by rs4246215 could be mediated through miRNA, hsa-miR-1236-3p.
