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
backgroundType 1 diabetes (T1D) is an organ-specific autoimmune disorder characterized by the destruction of pancreatic β cells, leading to absolute insulin deficiency. The genes NLRP3, ICAM-1, PTPN22, and INS are reportedly associated with T1D in other populations. However, the genetic pattern of T1D in the Pakistani population is not clear. This study aimed to find the association of polymorphisms in the PTPN22, INS, NLRP3, and ICAM-1 genes with T1D susceptibility in the Pakistani population. METHODOLOGY: This case-control study includes 100 T1D patients (3-14 years), recruited randomly from the pediatric endocrinology department of Fatima Memorial Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan and 100 age-matched healthy controls were selected from different localities of the same population. The polymorphisms in PTPN22 (rs601, rs33996649, rs2488457), INS (rs80356664), NLRP3 (rs10754558, rs35829419), and ICAM-1 (rs1799969, rs5498) genes were genotyped by Sanger sequencing. The genotypic and allelic frequencies, haplotypes, and linkage disequilibrium were computed using the genetic toolset PLINK to investigate their relationship to T1D.
resultsThe results indicate that the occurrence of the GT genotype of the rs33996649 variant is significantly higher in children with T1D compared to a control group of healthy individuals (P = 0.001, OR: 2.0, 95% CI = 0.15-0.45). Furthermore, the CT genotype of rs2488457 was notably associated with T1D patients (P = 0.007, OR: 2.8, 95% CI = 0.56-0.67). The CG genotype of rs80356664 showed a slight association with T1D (P = 0.03, OR: 1.9, 95% CI = 0.35-0.59). The prevalence of the AT genotype of rs10754558 showed a strong association with T1D (P = 0.005, OR: 3.4, 95% CI = 0.45-0.69). The TG genotype of rs5498 was also strongly associated with T1D (P = 0.009, OR: 2.8, 95% CI = 0.75-0.89).
conclusionThe present study provides evidence that SNPs in the PTPN22, INS, NLRP3, and ICAM-1 genes are associated with the development of T1D. Further research is needed to explore their potential use in genetic screening and personalized medication.
