CTLA4 Gene Polymorphism and its Association with Disease Occurrence, Clinical Manifestations, Serum Markers and Cytokine Levels in SLE Patients from North India.
Article in Indian journal of dermatology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Background: Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein-4 (CTLA-4) or CD152 is an inhibitory receptor expressed constitutively on CD4+CD25+ T regulatory lymphocytes (Treg) and transiently on activated CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. Association of Methods: This cross sectional study was done in a tertiary health care centre in north India. Patients reporting to the hospital and diagnosed with systemic lupus erythematosus were included in study. +49 A/G (snp- rs231775) Results: A/A genotype was most common (51.2%) followed by the A/G genotype (46.3%) and G/G genotype (2.4%, detected in only 1 patient). The frequency of A allele was 74.4%, while of G allele was only 25.6%. A/G genotype SLE patients showed a higher risk (odds ratio 37.5, 95% CI- 6.048-232.51) of developing edema compared to A/A genotype patients. There was no statistically significant association of various Conclusions: A/A was the most common
