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 large proportion of the phenotypic variation in blood pressure (BP) appears to be inherited as a polygenic trait. This study examined the association between 12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the guanine nucleotide binding protein beta polypeptide 3 (GNB3) and adducin 1 alpha (ADD1) genes and systolic (SBP), diastolic (DBP), and mean arterial (MAP) BP. A total of 3,142 individuals from 636 families were recruited from rural north China, and 2,746 met the eligibility criteria for analysis. BP measurements were obtained using a random-zero sphygmomanometer. Genetic variants were determined using SNPlex assays on an automated DNA Sequencer. A mixed linear model was used to estimate the association between each SNP and BP level. After Bonferroni correction, marker rs4963516 of the GNB3 gene remained significantly associated with DBP (corrected P values = 0.006, 0.007 and 0.002 for co-dominant, additive, and recessive models, respectively) and MAP (corrected P values = 0.02, 0.049, and 0.005, respectively). Compared to carriers of the major A allele, CC homozygotes had higher mean DBP (75.81 +/- 0.62 vs. 73.46 +/- 0.25 mmHg, P = 0.0002) and MAP (91.87 +/- 0.68 vs. 89.42 +/- 0.28 mmHg, P = 0.0004) after adjusting for covariates of age, gender, BMI, study site, and room temperature during BP measurement. In summary, these data support a role for the GNB3 gene in BP regulation in the Chinese population. Future studies aimed at replicating these novel findings are warranted.
