Genome-wide scan identifies a quantitative trait locus at 4p15.3 for serum urate.
Article in European journal of human genetics : EJHG, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Elevated serum urate levels lead to gout and are associated with hypertension, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of this study was to identify evidence for genetic linkage with serum urate and to determine whether variation within positional candidate genes is associated with serum urate levels in a non-European population. Genetic linkage analysis and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping was performed in a large family pedigree cohort from Mauritius. We assessed associations between serum urate levels and 97 SNPs in a positional candidate gene, SLC2A9. A genome-wide scan identified a new region with evidence for linkage for serum urate at 4p15.3. SNP genotyping identified significant association between six SNP variants in SLC2A9 and serum urate levels. Allelic and gender-based effects were noted for several SNPs. Significant correlations were also observed between serum urate levels and individual components of metabolic syndrome. Our study results implicate genetic variation in SLC2A9 in influencing levels of serum urate over a broad range of values in a large Mauritian family cohort.
