FUT2 gene as a genetic susceptible marker of infectious diseases: A Review.
Review in International journal of molecular epidemiology and genetics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Some blood group antigens are reported as a susceptibility marker for some diseases. For instance, HBGA (Histo-blood group antigen) which is controlled by gene FUT2 also considered as a susceptible marker. The FUT2 gene which exhibits the expression of alpha-1, 2-L-fucosyltransferase enzyme also leads to HBGA expression for the gut, and it provides a composition of the phenotypical profile that exists in some populations with unique histories of evolution and it can be considered as a marker of the genetic population. It is found to have an association with many diseases which is discussed in this review. Polymorphic mutations are known to inhibit and reduce its function which are population specific. Detailed understanding and deeper knowledge of its role in the pathogenesis and prevention of many diseases is required. FUT2 may also have a potential role in the case of COVID-19 as a susceptible marker due to its association with respiratory diseases and the ABO blood group. There is an utmost need for this kind of review knowing its importance and owing to limited collective information.
