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

Schizophrenia is a common, multigenic psychiatric disorder. Linkage studies, including a recent meta-analysis of genome scans, have repeatedly implicated chromosome 8p12-p23.1 in schizophrenia susceptibility. More recently, significant association with a candidate gene on 8p12, neuregulin 1 (NRG1), has been reported in several European and Chinese samples. We investigated NRG1 for association in schizophrenia patients of Portuguese descent to determine whether this gene is a risk factor in this population. We tested NRG1 markers and haplotypes for association in 111 parent-proband trios, 321 unrelated cases, and 242 control individuals. Associations were found with a haplotype that overlaps the risk haplotype originally reported in the Icelandic population ("Hap(ICE)"), and two haplotypes located in the 3' end of NRG1 (all P<0.05). However, association was not detected with Hap(ICE) itself. Comparison of NRG1 transcript expression in peripheral leukocytes from schizophrenia patients and unaffected siblings identified 3.8-fold higher levels of the SMDF variant in patients (P=0.039). Significant positive correlations (P<0.001) were found between SMDF and HRG-beta 2 expression and between HRG-gamma and ndf43 expression, suggesting common transcriptional regulation of NRG1 variants. In summary, our results suggest that haplotypes across NRG1 and multiple NRG1 variants are involved in schizophrenia.
