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

aims/hypothesisIn the present study, we sought to examine the evidence that LMNA variants are associated with type 2 diabetes and quantitative metabolic traits in French Europid individuals.

methodsWe genotyped 24 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) spanning the LMNA gene in 3,093 case-control participants. The association between LMNA SNPs and quantitative metabolic traits was also examined in the 1,674 normoglycaemic adults who made up the control cohort.

resultsSNP rs505058, a synonymous SNP (D446D) in exon 7, showed nominal evidence of association with type 2 diabetes [p = 0.003, odds ratio (OR) 1.30 (95% CI 1.09-1.56)] in French Europids. A meta-analysis of available rs505058 genotype data from 7,819 participants provided support for a modest association of rs505058 with type 2 diabetes [p = 0.003, OR 1.19 (95% CI 1.06-1.35)]. We found no evidence (p = 0.91) that the tag SNP rs4641 is associated with type 2 diabetes. However, a meta-analysis of all available rs4641 genotype data in a total of 15,591 participants produced borderline evidence of association [p = 0.054, OR 1.05 (95% CI 1.00-1.11)]. SNP rs6669212, in the 3' untranslated region of LMNA, exhibited suggestive associations with WHR (p = 0.013), fasting serum levels of total cholesterol (p = 0.023) and triacylglycerol (p = 0.015). We emphasise that these quantitative trait associations are not corrected for multiple testing. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationThe available data do not support a major effect of common LMNA variation on type 2 diabetes susceptibility in northern Europeans. Further large-scale studies are required to conclusively establish the extent to which LMNA variants have an impact on quantitative metabolic traits.
