Functional SNPs in the Human Autoimmunity-Associated Locus 17q12-21.
Article in Genes, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Genome-wide association studies (GWASes) revealed several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human 17q12-21 locus associated with autoimmune diseases. However, follow-up studies are still needed to identify causative SNPs directly mediating autoimmune risk in the locus. We have chosen six SNPs in high linkage disequilibrium with the GWAS hits that showed the strongest evidence of causality according to association pattern and epigenetic data and assessed their functionality in a local genomic context using luciferase reporter system. We found that rs12946510, rs4795397, rs12709365, and rs8067378 influenced the reporter expression level in leukocytic cell lines. The strongest effect visible in three distinct cell types was observed for rs12946510 that is predicted to alter MEF2A/C and FOXO1 binding sites.
