Evaluation of the role of B7-H3 haplotype in association with impaired B7-H3 expression and protection against type 1 diabetes in Chinese Han population.

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
backgroundType 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disorder caused by the destruction of insulin-secreting cells. B7-H3 (CD276) plays a vital role in T cell response. However, B7-H3 expression and its clinical significance in T1D remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlations between the expression of B7-H3 and clinical parameters in T1D patients. The possible role of B7-H3 gene variants with T1D was also discussed.
methodsFour B7-H3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped in 121 T1D patients and 120 healthy controls by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) direct sequencing. Expression of membrane B7-H3 (mB7-H3) in peripheral blood lymphocytes was determined by flow cytometry. Levels of soluble B7-H3 (sB7-H3) in serum were analyzed by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
resultsThe B7-H3 haplotype T-A-C-T was less frequently observed in T1D patients compared to the controls (OR: 0.31, 95% CI: 0.16-0.61). B7-H3 expression on monocytes showed significant upregulation in T1D patients and was positively correlated with several clinical features including ALT, fast C-peptide 120 min, HbAlc, IFN-γ, IL-6 and TNF-α (P < 0.05). The concentration of sB7-H3 in serum increased in T1D patients (P < 0.0001). We also observed that B7-H3-T-A-C-T was associated with the decreased release of sB7-H3 but not the membrane form.
conclusionsB7-H3 may act as a potential biomarker related to the pathogenesis of T1D. The B7-H3-T-A-C-T polymorphism variant is associated with the low risk of T1D as well as less release of sB7-H3.
