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

The goal of the current study was to determine the high-resolution frequencies of the HLA-DRB1 alleles among the analyzed Romanian cohort of healthy stem cell donors. Using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS), we estimated class II HLA-DRB1 allele frequencies to a 6-digit resolution through HLA typing in a Romanian cohort of healthy individuals. The study for HLA genotyping included 420 willing donors from the National Registry of Voluntary Hematopoietic Stem Cell Donors (RNDVCSH). In 2020 and 2021, peripheral blood samples were collected and transported to the Fundeni Clinical Institute. We used the Immucor Mia Fora NGS MFlex kit for HLA genotyping. Forty-one different alleles were detected in 420 analyzed samples, out of which the most frequent HLA-DRB1 alleles were DRB1*16:01:01 (12.6%), DRB1*11:04:01 (12.1%) and DRB1*03:01:01 (12%). The HLA-DRB1*11:01:02 and -DRB1*08:04:01, -DRB1*05:01:01, -DRB1*13:05:01, -DRB1*14:07:01, -DRB1*09:01:02, -DRB1*11:02:01, -DRB1*04:07:01, -DRB1*15:03:01, -DRB1*03:02:01, -DRB1*04:06:02, -DRB1*04:08:01, -DRB1*14:05:01 were identified only once. The results revealed similarities with countries belonging to the Eastern Europe, the Balkans and the Caucasus regions. Further studies on larger Romanian cohorts are needed for confirming the current results.
