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

The goal of personalized medicine is to recommend drug treatment based on an individual's genetic makeup. Pharmacogenomic studies utilize two main approaches: candidate gene and whole-genome. Both approaches analyze genetic variants such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) to identify associations with drug response. In addition to DNA sequence variations, non-genetic but heritable epigenetic systems have also been implicated in regulating gene expression that could influence drug response. The International HapMap Project lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) have been used to study genetic determinants responsible for expression variation and drug response. Recent studies have demonstrated that common genetic variants, including both SNPs and copy number variants (CNVs) account for a substantial fraction of natural variation in gene expression. Given the critical role played by DNA methylation in gene regulation and the fact that DNA methylation is currently the most studied epigenetic system, we suggest that profiling the variation in DNA methylation in the HapMap samples will provide new insights into the regulation of gene expression as well as the mechanisms of individual drug response at a new level of complexity. Epigenomics will substantially add to our knowledge of how genetics explains gene expression and pharmacogenomics.
