The cholinesterases: analysis by pharmacogenomics in man.

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.
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
We have undertaken a study on variations in cholinesterase (ChE) genes in relation to cardiovascular (CV) function and the metabolic syndrome. Peripheral and central nervous system control of cardiovascular (CV) function mediated through cholinergic pathways is critical in homeostatic maintenance of blood pressure and responsiveness to stress. For acetylcholinesterase (AChE; EC 3.1.1.7) our focus is to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene that are linked to cardiovascular function. For butyrylcholinesterase (BChE; EC 3.1.1.8) we examined whether BChE activity correlated with parameters of the metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular function. ChE can be found in whole blood enabling a characterization of biochemical phenotype in addition to correlating genotype with phenotypic physiologic responses. Analysis of enzymatic activity was determined spectrophotometrically in blood samples from twin and other subject registries. Correlation analysis revealed significant relationships between enzyme activity and certain CV endpoints. Linkage analysis with data from a dizygotic (DZ) twin set showed a suggestive linkage at the BChE locus, and statistical analysis revealed a high correlation between BChE activity and variables associated with cardiovascular risk and the metabolic syndrome. Pattern of within-pair twin correlations by zygosity and the ACE model-fitting findings suggest the major source of this variation (65%) is attributable to an additive genetic component. To date 19 SNPs have been identified by the re-sequencing of AChE including four nonsynonymous coding SNPs (cSNPs).
