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

backgroundLatest research on ankylosing spondylitis (AS) indicates a link between the B3GNT2, PSMG1 genes and susceptibility to AS among western populations. However, the association of these three genes with AS in eastern populations remains insufficiently explored. It is necessary to replicate these studies in other populations. Consequently, we chose tagSNPs in these three genes in the Chinese Han population to be sequenced. PURPOSE: We tried to find the SNP loci that are associated in both eastern and western populations through repeated experiments. Furthermore, our research extended to examining the link between these genes and the severity of AS. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the tagSNPs of B3GNT2 (rs10865331, rs6545925, rs467250), the rs4676410 SNP on GPR35, and the rs4816648 SNP of PSMG1 with AS susceptibility and disease activity in a Chinese Han population.

methodWe collected blood samples from 497 patients with AS and 498 control subjects and sequenced 5 tagSNPs in B3GNT2, 1 tagSNP in GPR35, and 6 tagSNPs in PSMG1.

resultWithin the five selected tagSNPs of B3GNT2, the rs10865331, rs6545925, and rs4672501 tagSNPs are associated with susceptibility to AS. Additionally, the rs4672501 SNP is not only associated with susceptibility to AS, but also with the severity of AS. For the first time, we find that the rs4676410 SNP on the GPR35 gene is associated with susceptibility to AS, but not associated with the severity of AS in the Chinese Han population. We find for the first time that the rs4816648 SNP of the PSMG1 gene is associated with both susceptibility and severity of ankylosing spondylitis.

conclusionB3GNT2 and PSMG1 genes are related to both susceptibility and severity of AS. The GPR35 gene is related to susceptibility to AS in the Chinese Han population, which corroborates the findings of research conducted in western populations.
