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

purpose of reviewTo highlight recent type 2 diabetes (T2D)-associated genetic discoveries and their potential for clinical application. RECENT

findingsThe advent of genome-wide association screening has uncovered many loci newly associated with T2D. This review describes the techniques applied to discover novel T2D genes and compares their relative strengths, biases, and findings to date. The results of large-scale genome-wide association studies carried out since 2007 are summarized, and limitations of interpreting this preliminary data are offered. Recent studies exploring the clinical potential of these discoveries are reviewed, focusing on insights into T2D pathogenesis, risk prediction of future diabetes, and utility in guiding pharmacotherapy. The new T2D-associated loci have been implicated in beta-cell development and function, highlighting insulin secretion in the disease process. Preliminary risk prediction studies show that more loci are needed to improve T2D risk indices. Studies have also revealed that genes may play a role in the pharmacologic response to antidiabetic medications. SUMMARY: Since 2007, genome-wide association studies have rapidly increased the number of T2D-associated loci. This review summarizes the history of genetic association studies, the results from the new genome-wide association studies, and the clinical application of these findings.
