Association between IFNGR1 gene polymorphisms and tuberculosis susceptibility: A meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in public health, 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
The association of IFN-γ receptor 1 (IFNGR1) gene polymorphisms with tuberculosis (TB) susceptibility has not been systematically studied. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to assess their association. Literature search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) was pooled by the random-effect model. Statistical analyses were performed using STATA 12.0 software. Fourteen studies involved 7,699 TB cases and 8,289 controls were included in this meta-analysis. A significant association was found between the IFNGR1 rs2234711 polymorphism and TB susceptibility among Africans in dominant model (OR = 1.24, 95%CI:1.01-1.52), and among Asians in allele model (OR = 0.89, 95%CI: 0.79-0.99), homozygote model (OR = 0.82, 95%CI: 0.70-0.98) and additive model (OR = 0.90, 95%CI: 0.83-0.97). In addition, a significant association was observed between the IFNGR1 rs7749390 polymorphism and TB susceptibility among Africans in allele model (OR = 0.89, 95%CI: 0.82-0.98). No significant association was found between the IFNGR1 rs1327474 polymorphism and TB susceptibility. In summary, IFNGR1 rs2234711 polymorphism was associated with increased TB susceptibility in Africans and decreased TB susceptibility in Asians, while IFNGR1 rs7749390 polymorphism was associated with decreased TB susceptibility in Africans.
