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

Adiponectin which possesses anti-inflammatory and insulin-sensitizing properties is elevated in blood circulation of liver cirrhosis patients. The genetic variations in the adiponectin gene can affect the circulating adiponectin level and stimulation of adiponectin receptor that may affect the activity of adiponectin. We investigated the effect of adiponectin single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) 45 T/G and adiponectin receptor-2 gene SNP 795G/A in cirrhotic Iranian population. A total of 97 cirrhotic patients and 128 healthy controls from Iranian population were genotyped for the adiponectin and adiponectin receptor 2 gene (+45T>G and 795G/A) by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. G frequency was 21.1% versus 12.89% (P = 0.001) for SNP45, and G frequency was 75.8% versus 76.2% (P = 0.526) for SNP795G/A in the patients and control group, respectively. Based on our findings, the expression of the G allele at SNP45 is higher in the patient group compared with healthy subjects, suggesting that it may affect liver injury through changes in the plasma adiponectin level.
