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

objectivesTo validate in an ethnically homogeneous Greek multiple sclerosis (MS) cohort, genetic risk factors for the disease, identified through a number of previous multi-ethnic genome-wide association studies (GWAS).

methodsA total of 1228 MS cases and 1014 controls were recruited in the study, from 3 MS centers in Greece. We genotyped 35 susceptibility SNPs that emerged from previous GWAS or meta-analyses of GWAS. Allele and genotype single locus regression analysis, adjusted for gender and site, was performed. Permutation testing was applied to all analyses.

resultsSix polymorphisms reached statistical significance (permutation p value < 0.05). In particular, rs2760524 of LOC105371664, near RGS1 (permutation p value 0.001), rs3129889 of HLA-DRA, near HLA-DRB1 (permutation p value < 1.00e-04), rs1738074 of TAGAP (permutation p value 0.007), rs703842 of METTL1/CYP27B1 (permutation p value 0.008), rs9596270 of DLEU1 (permutation p value < 1.00e-04), and rs17445836 of LincRNA, near IRF8 (permutation p value 0.001) were identified as susceptibility risk factors in our group.

conclusionThe current study replicated a number of GWAS susceptibility SNPs, which implies that some similarities between the examined Greek population and the MS genetic architecture of the GWAS populations do exist.
