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

Genetic predisposition likely plays an important role in the development of intracranial aneurysms. We carried out a genome search meta-analysis to identified loci associated with intracranial aneurysm. We identified previous whole-genome linkage analyses by searching PUBMED. Five studies reported by separate investigators where detailed data could be obtained were included in our analysis. We synthesized the available genome-wide scan data by using a heterogeneity-based genome search meta-analyses. We identified two linkage sites on chromosomes 3 and 17 which had P-values <0.01 for association with intracranial aneurysm. Our findings confirm the association of a locus on chromosome 17 and identify a new linkage site on chromosome 3 for intracranial aneurysm. The new locus contains a number of potential gene candidates including kininogen-1 precursor, fibroblast growth factor-12 and endothelin converting enzyme 2.
