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

Recent studies have reported the involvement of complement system proteins in the initiation and progression of islet autoimmunity (IA) in the study of Type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, the genetic factors of complement system proteins at the time of triggering of IA are unknown. Through complement system protein quantitative trait locus (pQTL) mapping discovery analysis of 170 participants from the Diabetes Autoimmunity Study in the Young (DAISY) and replication analysis of 385 IA cases from The Environment Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study, we identify 68 significant pQTLs in total for C8A, C8B, CFB, C4A, and MBL2. Furthermore, all replicated pQTLs of CFB and C4A are previously reported to be associated with T1D risk. Our study provides evidence for the potential biological roles of complement system proteins in the etiology of IA and T1D for young children at high risk of developing T1D.
