Variation in the gene encoding the co-inhibitory molecule BTLA is associated with survival in patients treated for clear cell renal carcinoma - results of a prospective 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
Introduction: The successful introduction of immune checkpoint blockade approaches to renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) treatment indicates the importance of molecules regulating the T cell response to RCC risk and progression. Material and methods: In this study, we evaluate the association of variations in the Results: During long term observation (6.5 years) we discovered that possessing the A allele at BTLA rs1844089 SNP, together with advanced disease (stage ≥ 3, tumor grade > 3, tumor diameter ≥ 70 mm), is an independent risk factor of death which increases the hazard ratio (HR) of death by more than two-fold (HR = 2.21, 95% CI: 1.28-3.83). Furthermore, the OS of patients bearing this allele is 6 months shorter than for homozygous (GG) patients (42.5 vs. 48.2 months). Conclusions: Our results indicate for the first time that genetic variation within the gene encoding BTLA is significantly associated with overall survival in clear cell renal cell carcinoma patients.
