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/hypothesisA genome-wide association study recently identified an association between common variants, rs1535435 and rs9494266, in the AHI1 gene and type 2 diabetes. The aim of the present study was to investigate the putative association between these polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes or type 2 diabetes-related metabolic traits in Danish individuals.

methodsThe previously associated polymorphisms were genotyped in the population-based Inter99 cohort (n=6162), the Danish ADDITION study (n=8428), a population-based sample of young healthy participants (n=377) and in additional type 2 diabetes (n=2107) and glucose-tolerant participants (n=483) using Taqman allelic discrimination. The case-control study involved 4,104 type 2 diabetic patients and 5,050 glucose-tolerant control participants. Type 2 diabetes-related traits were investigated in 17,521 individuals.

resultsrs1535435 and rs9494266 were not associated with type 2 diabetes. Odds ratios (OR) were OR(add) 1.0 (95% C.I. 0.9-1.2; p(add)=0.7) and OR(add) 1.1 (0.9-1.2; p(add)=0.4), respectively, a finding supported by meta-analyses: OR(add) 1.0 (0.9-1.1; p(add)=0.6) and OR(add) 1.0 (0.9-1.1; p(add)=0.6), respectively. Neither rs1535435 nor rs9494266 were consistently associated with any of the tested type 2 diabetes-related metabolic traits. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationData from large samples of Danish individuals do not support a role for AHI1 rs1535435 nor rs9494266 as major type 2 diabetes variants. This study highlights the importance of independent and well-powered replication studies of the recent genome-wide association scans before a locus is robustly validated as being associated with type 2 diabetes.
