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

purposeSeveral studies suggest that vascular dysregulation play a role in the etiology of glaucoma. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene polymorphisms with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and primary closed angle glaucoma (PCAG).

methodsThere were 102 POAG and 88 PCAG patients, diagnosed on the basis of clinical history, raised intraocular pressure (IOP), cup-to-disc ratio (CDR) and visual field defects, and 120 age- and sex-matched control subjects genotyped for 5 tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs743507, rs3793342, rs11771443, rs7830, and rs3918188) of the human eNOS gene.

resultsrs3793342, rs743507, rs11771443, rs7830, and rs3918188 were not found to be associated with POAG or with PCAG. In the haplotype-based case-control analysis, the frequency of the C-T haplotype established by rs3793342 and rs11771443 was significantly higher for POAG patients than for control subjects (p<0.001, OR=5.111, 95%CI=1.766~14.788).

conclusionsThe C-T haplotype established by rs3793342 and rs11771443 may be genetic marks of POAG in the Han Chinese population.
