1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multifactorial autoimmune disease and polymorphisms in the cytokine genes and their receptors are thought to influence its development. The aim of this case-control study was to investigate the association of the IL-17A rs2275913, IL-17RC rs708567 and TGFB1 rs1800469 polymorphisms with SLE, its clinical manifestations and the polymorphisms influence on the IL-17A serum levels. Altogether 59 SLE patients with lupus nephritis and 95 healthy controls were genotyped by TaqMan assay. Serum levels were determined by Human IL-17A Platinum ELISA kit. From the studied polymorphisms, only TGFB1 T allele was found to be associated with SLE. Within the patient group, IL-17A GG genotype and TGFB1 -509T allele showed an association with the neurological disease and IL-17RC CC genotype appeared to be associated with lupus arthritis. The IL17A serum levels in the SLE and control groups (7.24 pg/ml and 5.76 pg/ml, respectively) did not show any statistical difference. A weak correlation between IL17A levels and SLEDAI-2K was observed. Our results indicate that IL-17A rs2275913, IL-17RCrs708567 and TGFB1 rs1800469 polymorphisms might play a role in the susceptibility and the clinical manifestations of SLE and IL-17A serum levels should be monitored in the course of the disease. The identification of subsets of SLE with an IL-17-driven disease could improve the therapeutic approach leading to more precise personalized treatment.
