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 -1131T>C polymorphism in the newly identified apolipoprotein A5 (APOA5) gene has been associated with elevated plasma triglycerides. We determined its incidence in 915 patients attending a lipid outpatient clinic. The frequency of the C allele was significantly higher in patients with triglycerides above the 90th percentile and patients with type III hyperlipidemia compared to those with hypercholesterolemia. The C allele was associated with increased plasma triglycerides and decreased plasma HDL cholesterol, conditions associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease. The effects on plasma lipids were only observed in overweight (BMI>25) patients and were greater in patients who were also carriers of a least one epsilon4 allele in the APOE gene. Thus additional genetic and/or metabolic factors are required in order for the triglyceride raising and HDL lowering effect of the -1131T>C polymorphism in APOA5 to be expressed.
