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

Celiac disease (CeD) is an autoimmune disease driven by a complex genetic interplay within and beyond the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) region. Despite this, half of its heritability remains unexplained, with most of the unidentified variants located in non-protein coding regions. Here we performed a genome-wide association study among 52,342 adults screened for CeD, including 465 previously undiagnosed and 361 already diagnosed cases, which mitigated the likely disease misclassification present in previous studies. Genotyping and imputation yielded approximately 24.9 million variants for analysis. The study identified 15 novel associations (P < 5E-08) in 12 loci in addition to all the previously associated loci at lower significance thresholds (P < 5E-03). The 5p15.33 locus in the long non-coding RNA gene (LINC01019) showed the highest potential for a true association with CeD. Notably, variants in 5p15.33 has also been associated with rheumatoid arthritis, suggesting a new shared autoimmune locus.
