AHR rs4410790 genotype and IgG levels: Effect modification by lifestyle factors.
Article in PloS one, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Inflammation is a multifaceted marker resulting from complex interactions between genetic and lifestyle factors. Emerging evidence suggests Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) protein may be implicated in the regulation of immune system and inflammatory responses. To investigate whether rs4410790 genotype (TT, TC, CC) near AHR gene is related to serum IgG levels, a marker of chronic inflammation, and whether lifestyle factors modifies the relationship, we conducted a cross-sectional study by recruiting 168 Korean adults. Participants responded to a lifestyle questionnaire and provided oral epithelial cells and blood samples for biomarker assessment. Among these participants, C allele was the minor allele, with the minor allele frequency of 40%. The rs4410790 TT genotype was significantly associated with elevated IgG levels compared with TC/CC genotypes, after adjusting for potential confounders (p = 0.04). The relationship varied significantly by levels of alcohol consumption (P interaction = 0.046) and overweight/obese status (P interaction = 0.02), but not by smoking status (P interaction = 0.64) and coffee consumption (P interaction = 0.55). Specifically, higher IgG levels associated with the TT genotype were evident in frequent drinkers and individuals with BMI≥23kg/m2, but not in their counterparts. Thus, rs4410790 genotype may be associated with IgG levels and the genetic predisposition to higher IgG levels may be mitigated by healthy lifestyle factors like infrequent drinking and healthy weight.
