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

Genetic determinants underlying most human blood groups are now clarified but variation in expression levels remains largely unexplored. By developing a bioinformatics pipeline analyzing GATA1/Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by sequencing (ChIP-seq) datasets, we identify 193 potential regulatory sites in 33 blood-group genes. As proof-of-concept, we aimed to delineate the low-expressing complement receptor 1 (CR1) Helgeson phenotype on erythrocytes, which is correlated with several diseases and protects against severe malaria. We demonstrate that two candidate CR1 enhancer motifs in intron 4 bind GATA1 and drive transcription. Both are functionally abolished by naturally-occurring SNVs. Erythrocyte CR1-mRNA and CR1 levels correlate dose-dependently with genotype of one SNV (rs11117991) in two healthy donor cohorts. Haplotype analysis of rs11117991 with previously proposed markers for Helgeson shows high linkage disequilibrium in Europeans but explains the poor prediction reported for Africans. These data resolve the longstanding debate on the genetic basis of inherited low CR1 and form a systematic starting point to investigate the blood group regulome.
