The Association of Human Leukocyte Antigen Genotyping Among Sudanese Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: Reference to Ethnicity.

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
introductionHuman leukocyte antigens (HLA) account for up to one-half of the total genetic contribution to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) risk. The study investigated the association of HLA class II genotyping with RA susceptibility in Sudanese ethnic groups.
methodsThe DRB1 and DQB1 alleles and haplotypes were determined in 122 RA patients (i.e., Gaalia = 54, Johayna = 24, Baggara = 17, Nile Nubian = 12, and others = 15) and 120 healthy controls of ethnic groups (i.e., Gaalia = 44, Johayna = 11, Baggara = 15, Nile Nubian = 9, and others = 21) using a polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers method.
resultsSusceptibility to RA was associated with a high frequency of DRB1*04 (P = 0.04), DRB1*10 (P = 0.04), and DQB1*03 (P = 2.2 x 10
conclusionsOur findings indicate an association between HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 genotypes and the susceptibility to RA in the Sudanese population, with a moderate frequency between our ethnic groups.
