The HLA-B*57:01 Haplotype, Genetic Key Linking Innate Immunity and Longevity.
Article in Aging and disease, 2025. 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
In our recent research on AIDS Elite controllers, we demonstrated that the HLA-B*57:01 allele is part of an extensive MHC haplotype associated with impaired MICA/MICB function. Considering the pivotal role of natural killer (NK) cells and innate immunity in fighting cancer and infectious diseases, we investigated whether this allele could also influence human longevity. To this end, we performed a multinational European study including 2,597 centenarians and 9,973 controls. We found that HLA-B*57:01 was consistently less frequent in the European centenarian cohorts compared with the corresponding controls (OR ≈ 0.68, p < 0.0005). These findings provide the first in vivo genetic evidence that innate immunity and NK cell function are key components of human longevity.
