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

objectiveThe gene for mast cell chymase (CMA1) is an ideal candidate for investigating the genetic predisposition to coronary heart disease (CHD), as activated mast cells have been found to be present in a greater proportion in the shoulder region of atheroma than in normal coronary intimae. Previous studies have indicated that CMA1 promoter polymorphism rs1800875 may be involved in regulating immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels in patients with eczema, and it is associated with the progression of immunoglobulin A nephropathy.

methodsThe association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs1800875, serum chymase, and serum IgE levels was examined in 175 CHD subjects and 95 non-CHD subjects.

resultsStatistical analysis indicated no significant difference in allele frequency between CHD and non-CHD. However, a significant association was found between CMA1 genotypes and total IgE levels in CHD subjects. Meanwhile, crossover analysis revealed that, in GG homozygotes, CHD risk was nearly six times higher in those with IgE (U/ml) level <2.58 (natural logarithm conversion), while no association was found with chymase level.

conclusionsPolymorphism rs1800875 of CMA1 may be associated with serum IgE level in CHD subjects, but not with chymase level in both groups. In GG homozygotes, high IgE level is a protective factor against coronary disease.
