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

backgroundCirculating levels of soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1, soluble P-selectin, and soluble E-selectin have been associated with variation at the ABO locus. To evaluate these associations and the effect sizes, we performed a meta-analysis with new and previous reported data for polymorphism rs579459. METHODS AND

resultsCompared with major allele homozygotes, heterozygotes and minor allele homozygotes had 4.6% (95% CI, 3.4%-5.8%, P=7.3 × 10(-14)) and 7.2% (95% CI, 4.7%-9.7%, P=1.5 × 10(-8)), respectively, lower soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1 levels (n=33 671). An allele dose-dependent association also was observed for soluble P-selectin (n=4921) with heterozygotes and minor allele homozygotes having 11.5% (95% CI, 7.2%-15.8%, P=1.7 × 10(-7)) and 18.6% (95% CI, 9.1%-28.1%, P=1.2 × 10(-4)), respectively, lower levels than in major allele homozygotes. A larger effect size, again consistent with an additive genetic model, was seen for soluble E-selectin (n=2860) whose level was 25.6% (95% CI, 19.0%-32.2%, P=2.1 × 10(-14)) lower in heterozygotes and 43.3% (95% CI, 36.9%-49.3%, P=4.3 × 10(-42)) lower in minor allele homozygotes than in major allele homozygotes.

conclusionsThe data support the association of variation at the ABO locus with soluble intercellular adhesion molecule-1, soluble P-selectin, and soluble E-selectin levels.
