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

backgroundSarcoidosis is a multifactorial immune disorder with an uncertain origin. A single nucleotide polymorphism (G→A, rs2076530) in the butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) gene results in the formation of truncating protein. This study aimed to genotype the predisposition of the BTNL2 rs2076530 polymorphism in Iranian patients with sarcoidosis using the RFLP technique. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn this study, 80 patients with sarcoidosis and 80 healthy individuals were included. The rs2076530 polymorphism of the BTNL2 gene was genotyped using the PCR-RFLP method by AvrII restriction enzyme and confirmed by DNA sequencing (Capillary electrophoresis 3130, ABI).

resultsThere was a statistically significant difference between proportions of patients with AA (47,5%) and controls (27.5%) (OR=2.38, 95%CI:1.23-4.61, P=0.009). In addition, a significant difference was observed in the frequency of the A allele (62.5%) in sarcoidosis (OR=2.14, 95%CI:1.37-3.35,

conclusionAccording to our findings, the BTNL2 rs2076530 A allele in the Iranian population is associated with susceptibility to sarcoidosis. This designed PCR-RFLP method for detecting SNPs is effective as DNA sequencing.
