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

The rough draft of the human genome map has been used to identify most of the functional genes in the human genome, as well as to identify nucleotide variations, known as "single-nucleotide polymorphisms" (SNPs), in these genes. By use of advanced biotechnologies, researchers are beginning to genotype thousands of SNPs from biological samples. Among the many possible applications, one of them is the study of SNP associations with complex human diseases, such as cancers or coronary heart diseases, by using a case-control study design. Through the gathering of environmental risk factors and other lifestyle factors, such a study can be effectively used to investigate interactions between genes and environmental factors in their associations with disease phenotype. Earlier, we developed a method to statistically construct individuals' haplotypes and to estimate the distribution of haplotypes of multiple SNPs in a defined population, by use of estimating-equation techniques. Extending this idea, we describe here an analytic method for assessing the association between the constructed haplotypes along with environmental factors and the disease phenotype. This method is also robust to the model assumptions and is scalable to a large number of SNPs. Asymptotic properties of estimations in the method are proved theoretically and are tested for finite sample sizes by use of simulations. To demonstrate the use of the method, we applied it to assess the possible association between apolipoprotein CIII (six coding SNPs) and restenosis by using a case-control data set. Our analysis revealed two haplotypes that may reduce the risk of restenosis.
