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

In case-control association studies, it is typical to observe several associated polymorphisms in a gene region. Often the most significantly associated polymorphism is considered to be the disease polymorphism; however, it is not clear whether it is the disease polymorphism or there is more than one disease polymorphism in the gene region. Currently, there is no method that can handle these problems based on the linkage disequilibrium (LD) relationship between polymorphisms. To distinguish real disease polymorphisms from markers in LD, a method that can detect disease polymorphisms in a gene region has been developed. Relying on the LD between polymorphisms in controls, the proposed method utilizes model-based likelihood ratio tests to find disease polymorphisms. This method shows reliable Type I and Type II error rates when sample sizes are large enough, and works better with re-sequenced data. Applying this method to fine mapping using re-sequencing or dense genotyping data would provide important information regarding the genetic architecture of complex traits.
