Neither the African-Centric S47 Nor P72 Variant of TP53 Is Associated With Reduced Risk of Febrile Malaria in a Malian Cohort Study.

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
backgroundTP53 has been shown to play a role in inflammatory processes, including malaria. We previously found that p53 attenuates parasite-induced inflammation and predicts clinical protection to Plasmodium falciparum infection in Malian children. Here, we investigated whether p53 codon 47 and 72 polymorphisms are associated with differential risk of P. falciparum infection and uncomplicated malaria in a prospective cohort study of malaria immunity.
methodsp53 codon 47 and 72 polymorphisms were determined by sequencing TP53 exon 4 in 631 Malian children and adults enrolled in the Kalifabougou cohort study. The effects of these polymorphisms on the prospective risk of febrile malaria, incident parasitemia, and time to fever after incident parasitemia over 6 months of intense malaria transmission were assessed using Cox proportional hazards models.
resultsConfounders of malaria risk, including age and hemoglobin S or C, were similar between individuals with or without p53 S47 and R72 polymorphisms. Relative to their respective common variants, neither S47 nor R72 was associated with differences in prospective risk of febrile malaria, incident parasitemia, or febrile malaria after parasitemia.
conclusionsThese findings indicate that p53 codon 47 and 72 polymorphisms are not associated with protection against incident P. falciparum parasitemia or uncomplicated febrile malaria.
