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

We have mapped a locus on chromosome 7p22.3-7p15.3 spanning a 22.4 Mb region for ulcerative colitis (UC) by whole genome linkage analyses of a large Danish family. The family represent three generations with UC segregating as an autosomal dominant trait with variable expressivity. The whole-genome scan resulted in a logarithm of odds score (LOD score) of Z = 3.31, and a whole genome sequencing (WGS) of two affected excluded disease-causing mutations in the protein coding genes. Two rare heterozygote variants, rs182281985:G>A and rs541426369:G>A, both with low allele frequencies (MAF A:0.0001, gnomAD ver3.1.2), were found in clusters of ChiP-seq transcription factors binding sites close to the AHR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) gene and the UC associated SNP rs1077773:G>A. Testing the two SNPs in a promoter reporter assay for regulatory activity revealed that rs182281985:G>A influenced the AHR promoter. These results suggest a regulatory region that include rs182281985:G>A close to the UC GWAS SNP rs1077773:G>A and further demonstrate evidence that the AHR gene on the 7p-tel region is a candidate susceptible gene for UC.
