Identification and characterization of rare toll-like receptor 3 variants in patients with autoimmune Addison's disease.
Article in Journal of translational autoimmunity, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Autoimmune Addison's disease (AAD) is a classic organ-specific autoimmune disease characterized by an immune-mediated attack on the adrenal cortex. As most autoimmune diseases, AAD is believed to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors, and probably interactions between the two. Persistent viral infections have been suggested to play a triggering role, by invoking inflammation and autoimmune destruction. The inability of clearing infections can be due to aberrations in innate immunity, including mutations in genes involved in the recognition of conserved microbial patterns. In a whole exome sequencing study of anonymized AAD patients, we discovered several rare variants predicted to be damaging in the gene encoding Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3). TLR3 recognizes double stranded RNAs, and is therefore a major factor in antiviral defense. We here report the occurrence and functional characterization of five rare missense variants in
