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 discordance in results between independent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) indicates the potential for Type I and Type II errors. To identify the causes of variability underlying lack of reproducibility, here we present the results of a repeatability experiment on GWAS on a cohort of 1991 coronary artery disease individuals and 1500 controls (National Blood Service) provided by the Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium. As part of the MicroArray Quality Control project, we identified quality control (QC) and association analysis steps with a major impact on the identification of candidate markers for possible classifiers. Different experimental conditions were used with the CHIAMO calling algorithm to assess the effects of batch size and case-control composition on downstream association analysis. Results showed that both composition and size create discordant single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) results for QC and statistical analysis and may contribute to the lack of reproducibility in GWAS. An interactive effect of batch size and composition contributes to discordant results in significantly associated loci. About 800 significant SNPs (Cochran-Armitage trend test, P<5.0 x 10(-7)) were found for batches of 2000 samples with separated cases and controls, whereas only 14 significant markers were found with one batch of all samples.
