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 aim of our study was to investigate the frequency and compare the prevalence of IRS-1Gly972Arg and IRS-2 Gly1057Asp polymorphisms in PCOS patients and non-diabetic healthy women. MATERIAL(S) AND METHOD(S): Forty eight Iranian women diagnosed with PCOS were enrolled in this study. Fifty two non-diabetics, non-PCOS women were enrolled as the control group. HemoglobinA1c (HbA1c), fasting blood glucose (FBS), fasting insulin levels (FIL) and 2 h post-prandial blood glucose(2hpp BS) were evaluated from blood samples. Insulin resistance sample was estimated with Homeostasis Model Assessment index for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR). Genotyping of allelic variants Gly972Arg of IRS-1 and Gly1057Asp of IRS-2 was conducted using PCR.

resultsNo statistically significant differences in the prevalence of IRS-1 Gly972Arg or IRS-2 Gly1057Asp polymorphisms or any combination of both were observed between controls and PCOS patients (P > 0.02). Control subjects with the IRS-1 polymorphism had higher levels of 2hpp BS compared with those with the Gly/Gly genotype (P = 0.037).

conclusionsConsidering that no association between the IRS-1 Gly972Arg and IRS-2 Gly1057Asp polymorphisms and PCOS were found, the results confirm that these polymorphisms should not be considered as major contributors to the pathogenesis of this disorder.
