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

A current challenge in interpretation of genome-wide association studies is to establish the mechanistic links between the measured genotype and observed phenotype. The integration of gene expression with disease genome-wide association studies is emerging as an important strategy for deciphering these regulatory mechanisms. For renal disease, the availability of both tissue- and disease-specific expression data makes the strategy a compelling option. In this review, three approaches of integrating single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotypes with transcriptional regulation are discussed as follows: (1) interpreting the functional role of transcripts affected by a SNP, (2) identifying the mechanistic role of noncoding SNPs in regulation, and (3) identifying regulatory candidate SNPs with expression associations. Combining these strategies in an integrative manner should allow the discovery of more extensive regulatory information. Linking genetics to systems biology more directly promises the opportunity to explain how genetic variants contribute to disease in a truly holistic manner.
