Genetic and expression changes in TNF-α as a risk factor for rheumatoid arthritis pathogenesis in northeast India.
Article in Journal of genetics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Antitumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) therapy is used as a clinical intervention for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but differences exist in response to the treatment which makes the candidature of the screening of TNF-α alteration(s) at genetic and expression levels an important agenda prior to treatment. This study aims to determine the associative role of TNF-α -308G/A polymorphism and differential expression of TNF-α in the pathogenesis of RA. A case-control study where a total of 126 RA patients were enrolled based on ACR-EULAR (2010) criteria, along with 160 community matched age and sex controls over a period of three years. The differential expression level of TNF-α mRNA and protein level was studied and TNF-α -308G/A polymorphism was screened by T-ARMS PCR assay. All statistical analysis was performed using SPSS software. mRNA expression level of TNF-α was upregulated in RA cases (avg. 15.85 ± 9.52 fold) compared to control. TNF-α protein level was found to be higher in RA cases (28.62±7.17 pg/mL) compared to control (23.14±6.91 pg/mL). TNF-α -308 variant GA genotype was higher in RA (46.03%) than in control (25%). The presence of TNF-α -308 variant A allele was associated with increased risk of RA susceptibility (odds ratio (OR) = 2.559 at 95% confidence interval (CI),
