Clinical characteristics and HLA genotypes in Chinese patients with anti-SLA/LP-positive autoimmune hepatitis.
Article in Annals of translational medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundAnti-soluble liver antigen/liver pancreas (anti-SLA/LP) is a highly specific serological marker for the diagnosis of autoimmune hepatitis (AIH). The aim of the present study was to define the clinical characteristics and human leucocyte antigen (HLA) genotypes of Chinese patients with anti-SLA/LP positive AIH.
methodsNinety-one AIH patients who were anti-SLA/LP positive were enrolled in this case control study. Clinical information was obtained through reviewing patients' clinical notes. High-resolution genotyping of HLA-A, B, C, DRB1, and DQB1 alleles was performed by sequence-based typing polymerase chain reaction on 62 of the 91 patients. Data from 500 healthy patients were used as baseline controls.
resultsAnti-SLA/LP-positive AIH patients were characterized as follows: adults (age 20-80 years), female (88%), and frequent anti-nuclear antibody positivity (91%). Genetically, compared with the controls, HLA-B*35:01 and C*08:01 were significantly more frequent in patients. The frequencies of HLA-B*08:01, B*40:02, DRB1*04:01, DRB1*04:05, DRB1*14:01, and DRB1*16:02 increased, and the frequency in DRB1*15:01 decreased in patients, but did not reach significance after Bonferroni's correction. Patients with other autoimmune diseases had a higher DRB1*04:05 and DQB1*04:01 allele carrier frequency than those without. DRB1*04:05 and DQB1*04:01 alleles were found at increased frequency in patients with decompensated liver disease than those with compensated liver disease.
conclusionsChinese anti-SLA/LP-positive AIH patients have some distinct clinical characteristics than other populations reported in the literature. The presence of certain specific HLA alleles could potentially increase the risk of developing anti-SLA/LP-positive AIH or other autoimmune disease and decompensated liver disease in the Chinese population.
