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

objectiveCorticotropin-releasing hormone receptor (CRHR)-2 participates in smooth muscle relaxation response and may influence acute airway bronchodilator response to short-acting beta2-agonist treatment of asthma. We aim to assess associations between genetic variants of CRHR2 and acute bronchodilator response in asthma.

methodsWe investigated 28 single nucleotide polymorphisms in CRHR2 for associations with acute bronchodilator response to albuterol in 607 Caucasian asthmatic patients recruited as part of the Childhood Asthma Management Program. Replication was conducted in two Caucasian adult asthma cohorts--a cohort of 427 participants enrolled in a completed clinical trial conducted by Sepracor Inc. (Massachusetts, USA) and a cohort of 152 participants enrolled in the Clinical Trial of Low-Dose Theophylline and Montelukast conducted by the American Lung Association Asthma Clinical Research Centers.

resultsFive variants were significantly associated with acute bronchodilator response in at least one cohort (P<or=0.05). Variant rs7793837 was associated in Childhood Asthma Management Program and Low-Dose Theophylline and Montelukast (P=0.05 and 0.03, respectively) and haplotype blocks residing at the 5' end of CRHR2 were associated with response in all three cohorts.

conclusionWe report for the first time, at the gene level, replicated associations between CRHR2 and acute bronchodilator response. Although no single variant was significantly associated in all three cohorts, the findings that variants at the 5' end of CRHR2 are associated in each of three cohorts strongly suggest that the causative variants reside in this region and its genetic effect, although present, is likely to be weak.
