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

backgroundTRB3, a human homolog of Drosophila Tribbles, has been shown as a critical negative regulator of Akt (also known as protein kinase B), which is a key component in insulin signaling. In addition, TRB3 is another PPAR-target gene and functions as an important link between glucose and lipid metabolism. The Q84R polymorphic variant of TRB3 has been linked to insulin resistance and related clinical outcomes. However, it is unclear whether this polymorphism is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in the Chinese population.

methodsIn this study, we genotyped Q84R polymorphism in 177 patients with T2DM and 245 control subjects in Chinese population by using the polymerase chain reaction/ligase detection reaction (PCR/LDR) assay.

resultsNo significant difference in the Q84R genotype frequency was observed between T2DM patients and controls (P = 0.642). In T2DM group, the Q84R variant in cases was associated with higher FINS, higher HOMA-IR, and lower LnISI (P = 0.003, 0.001, and 0.001, respectively). However, the changes in HOMA-IR and LnISI were not significant in controls (the P value is 0.098 and 0.203, respectively). In addition, FINS levels were also significantly increased from Q84Q to R84 in controls (P = 0.036).

conclusionOur data indicate that the TRB3 Q84R polymorphism is not associated with T2DM in Chinese population. However, the Q84R variant is associated with insulin resistance among T2DM patients in Chinese population.
