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

It is generally assumed that the detection of disease susceptibility genes via fine-mapping association study is facilitated by consideration of marker haplotypes. In this study, we compared the performance of genotype-based and haplotype-based association studies using the Collaborative Study of Genetics of Alcoholism dataset, on several chromosomal regions showing evidence for linkage with ALDX1. After correction for multiple testing, the most significant results were observed with the genotype-based analyses on two regions of chromosomes 2 and 7. Interestingly, the analyses results from this dataset showed that there was no advantage of the haplotype-based analyses over genotype-based (single-locus) analyses. However, caution should be taken when generalizing these results to other chromosomal regions or to other populations.
