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

Multiple genome-wide association studies have shown that the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2281808 TT variant, present within the signal regulatory protein gamma (SIRPG) gene, is associated with autoimmune diseases, such as type 1 diabetes. SIRPγ is the only SIRP expressed on T cells. The role of SIRPγ in human T-cells or the effect of the TT variant are poorly understood. In this short report, we demonstrate the rather unusual finding that this intronic SNP is associated with a reduction of SIRPγ expression on T cells, both in healthy subjects as well as patients with type 1 diabetes. Using this information, we propose that a simple flow cytometric detection of SIRPγ could be a potential diagnostic testing approach for the presence of SNP in the appropriate clinical context.
