Relationship between tool-like receptor 4 gene polymorphism and the susceptibility to pulmonary tuberculosis.
Article in American journal of translational research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
objectiveTo evaluate the susceptibility of pulmonary tuberculosis based on the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) gene.
methodsWe searched PubMed, Web of science, EMBASE, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases using mesh words: "tuberculosis", "pulmonary", "TLR4", "SNP", "Toll like receptor 4", "nucleotide polymorphism" for studies on the relations between TLR4 SNP polymorphism and the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis that were published before September 1
results20 studies including a total of 24727 patients were included in the final meta-analysis. Results of the meta-analysis showed that the C allele of rs10759932 increased the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis (odds ratio - OR: 1.144; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.043-1.254, P = 0.004). Compared with TT genotype, CC+CT genotype of rs10759932 and CT alone genotype significantly increased the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis (OR = 1.218, 95% CI 1.084-1.369, P = 0.001; OR = 1.227, 95% CI 1.085-1.387, P = 0.001). However, rs4986790, rs4986791 and rs11536889 had no significant correlation with the susceptibility of pulmonary tuberculosis (P > 0.05).
conclusionG allele GG+GA genotype, and the GA genotype of rs4986790; C allele, CC+CT genotype, and the CC genotype of rs10759932 increased the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis, and may potentially be used as a marker for pulmonary tuberculosis diagnosis and monitoring.
