Association of apoptosis genes in PDCD1 but not PDCD1LG2, FAS, and FASLG with pediatric idiopathic uveitis in Han Chinese.
Article in Pediatric research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundPrevious studies have shown that aberrant T lymphocyte apoptosis is involved in the pathogenesis of uveitis. Genetic variants of apoptotic pathway-related factors (including PDCD1, PDCD1LG2, FAS, and FASLG) may affect apoptosis and in turn predict susceptibility to autoimmune disease. This has not yet been studied in pediatric idiopathic uveitis (PIU) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA)-associated uveitis and was therefore the subject of the study presented here.
methodsFourteen single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of several apoptosis-related pathway genes were analyzed in 1238 PIU patients, 128 JIA-associated uveitis patients and 1114 healthy controls using the iPLEX Gold Assay and MassARRAY platform.
resultsA lower frequency of the PDCD1/rs6710479 CC genotype in PIU patients was found when compared to controls (Pc = 3.42 × 10
conclusionsThis study revealed that rs6710479 and rs7421861 in the PDCD1 gene confer susceptibility to PIU in Han Chinese. A stratified analysis showed that PDCD1/rs7565639 is associated with band keratopathy in PIU patients.
