Influence of TGFB1 and CTLA4 polymorphisms on calcineurin inhibitors dose and risk of acute rejection in renal transplantation.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. 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
Organ transplant is often the treatment of choice as it extends and improves patient life. Immunosuppressive treatment, which prevents acute rejection of the organ, is used in transplant patients to prevent the loss of transplant. The aim of the study was to determine the impact of the CTLA4 (+49A>G, rs231775) and the TGF-β1 (-800G>A, rs1800468) polymorphisms on the therapeutic effect of immunosuppressive drugs (cyclosporine-CsA, tacrolimus-TAC) and the risk of acute rejection in renal transplant patients. The analysis of the CTLA4 +49A>G and the TGF-β1 -800G>A polymorphisms was carried out in 392 patients after kidney transplant using real-time PCR. The CTLA4 +49A>G polymorphism did not affect CsA or TAC dose, ratio of drug concentration to dose (C/D), and blood concentrations. As for the TGF-β1 -800G>A polymorphism, patients with the GA genotype required lower TAC doses compared to the GG genotype (TAC 12 h: 3.63 mg vs 5.3 mg, TAC 24 h: 2.38 mg vs 3.29 mg). Comparing the C/D ratio in both groups (TAC 12 h and TAC 24 h), higher C/D ratio was observed in patients with the GA genotype. These results indicate that patients with the A allele require slightly lower doses of TAC. The results suggest that the TGF-β1 -800 G>A polymorphism may influence the TAC dose, while the +49A>G polymorphism of the CTLA4 gene does not correlate with the dose of CsA or TAC. The analysis of the biochemical parameters of the renal profile showed no impact of the CTLA4 and the TGF-β1 polymorphisms on the risk of organ rejection.
