Comparative analysis of TNF-α (-308) gene polymorphism in Turkish patients with type 2 diabetes developing nephropathy and/or neuropathy.
Article in Scientific reports, 2024. 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
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a group of chronic and systemic metabolic diseases. Nephropathy (NP) and neuropathy (NR) are two common complications that severely affect the quality of life of patients with T2DM. In this study, our aim was to investigate the association between TNF-alpha (-308) gene polymorphism and the risk of developing NP and NR in patients with T2DM We also aimed to determine the association between TNF-alpha (-308) gene polymorphism and several demographic characteristics and biochemical parameters of patients with T2DM developed NP and/or NR. First, blood samples of patients were collected, and DNA isolation was performed. Then, real-time PCR analysis was used for genotyping the TNF-α (-308) gene utilising fluorescently labelled probes. Patients' demographical data and biochemical parameters were also obtained. Our study did not detect any significant difference in the frequency of possessing the gene polymorphism (A allele) between the groups. Additionally, no significant difference was detected when the data on various biochemical parameters were evaluated in GG, GA, and AA genotypes.
