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

objectiveThe IKBKE has been proven to be associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a genome-wide association study (GWAS) conducted by our group. The objective of the recent study is to investigate the contribution of IKBKE functional variants (rs2297550) to SLE.

methodsWe detected the regulatory effect of rs2297550 on IKBKE expression by expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) study. Then, we investigated the differences of IKBKE mRNA expression levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) between 135 SLE patients and 130 healthy controls using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). We further analyzed the association of SLE clinical characteristics with IKBKE mRNA expression and rs2297550 polymorphisms.

resultsThe results of eQTL indicated the genotype "GG" of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2297550 was associated with lower expression levels of IKBKE (P = 0.022) in normal controls. Compared with the healthy control group, the expression levels of IKBKE mRNA in patients with SLE were significantly decreased (P = 2.32 × 10

conclusionIn this study, we not only detected that the variant rs2297550 of IKBKE may be closely related to SLE, but also proposed functional hypotheses for the association signals. Key Points • The rs2297550 is located in a region with transcriptional regulatory function and may regulate the expression of IKBKE via these regulatory elements. • The genotype "GG" of SNP rs2297550 was associated with lower expression levels of IKBKE. • The expression of IKBKE mRNA was decreased in SLE patients compared with healthy controls. • IKBKE contributes to the clinical characteristics of SLE.
