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

Factors predisposing to the phenotypic features of hypertriglyceridemia have not been clearly defined. Here we report an association between a missense coding region polymorphism Asn985Tyr in the retinitis pigmentosa 1 gene ( RP1) and plasma triglyceride (TG) levels in 332 adult individuals from an east-central area of Japan. Age and gender-adjusted levels of LDL-cholesterol, TG, and HDL-cholesterol were analyzed. When we separate the subjects into two genotypic groups regarding this amino acid variation, those who lack the 985-Asn allele (asparagine at residue 985) had significantly higher plasma TG levels than the others who had at least one 985-Asn allele (mean: 175.8 mg/dl vs 123.3 mg/dl; P=0.0006, Mann-Whitney test). Similarly, the former subjects had significantly lower HDL-cholesterol levels than the latter (mean: 48.0 mg/dl vs 53.8 mg/dl; P=0.038). Of the 280 individuals without a 985-Asn allele, approximately half of the individuals presented with hypertriglyceridemia, whereas only a quarter were hypertriglyceridemic among 52 individuals with the 985-Asn allele ( P=0.04). Although this SNP marker may itself be in linkage disequilibrium with other unexamined functional variants within this locus, our data suggest that genetic variation at the RP1 locus is one of the likely candidate determinants for plasma triglyceride and HDL-cholesterol metabolisms.
