Why is Disease Penetration So Variable? Role of Genetic Modifiers of Lung Function in Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.
Review in Chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (Miami, Fla.), 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
Individuals with alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) have marked heterogeneity in lung function, suspected to be related to a combination of both environmental (e.g., cigarette smoking) and genetic factors. Lung function is heritable in the general population and in persons with severe AATD. Several genetic modifiers of lung function in persons with AATD have been described; however, replication is lacking. A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of lung function in persons with AATD has yet to be performed and may inform whether genetic determinants of lung function are overlapping in persons with AATD and in the general population. As GWASs require large sample sizes for adequate power, genetic risk scores offer an alternate approach to assess the overlap of genetic determinants of lung function in the general population in persons with AATD. Where GWASs are limited to common genetic variant discovery, whole genome sequencing (for rare variant discovery) and integrative genomic studies (examining the influence of genetic variants on gene, protein, and metabolite levels) offer potential for an expanded discovery of genetic modifiers of lung function in AATD. In the following review we examine past descriptions of genetic modifiers of lung function in AATD and describe a path forward to further investigate and define the likely genetic modifiers of lung function in AATD.
