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

backgroundHLA-G is a non-classical class I gene of the human Major Histocompatibility encoding molecules with immune-modulatory properties. Expression of HLA-G is being largely studied in pathological conditions, such as tumors, viral infections, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases, grafted tissues, among others. HLA-G +3142C/G (rs1063320: dbSNP database) polymorphism is located in 3' UTR of HAL-G and plays a key role in determining the magnitude of gene and protein expression. The detection of HLA-G +3142C/G polymorphism in the most published report is done through polymerase chain reaction followed by enzymatic digestion. Therefore, it is so interesting to develop a rapid and sensitive assay to genotype HLA-G +3142C/G polymorphism. High-resolution melt analysis (HRM) is a technology that is based on the analysis of the melting profile of PCR products through gradual temperature increase. The aim of this work is to apply high-resolution melt method for genotyping the HLA-G +3142C/G polymorphism.

methodsDNA from 118 individuals was extracted from whole blood with QIAamp

resultsWe were able to recognize the three genotypes with similar accuracy than DNA sequencing using high resolution melting method. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test shows that our population is in equilibrium for the studied SNP. Genotypes frequencies of +3142C/G polymorphism in Tunisian general population are 0.475 for heterozygote G/C, 0.186 for homozygote G/G and 0.339 for homozygote C/C.

conclusionHRM is a cost-effective method suitable for SNP genotyping.
