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

backgroundIschemic stroke descent has a genetic basis. Stroke represents a complex trait, which is assumed to be polygenic. On this topic, the role of a wide number of candidate genes has been investigated in stroke through association studies. MATERIALS AND

methodsWe performed a literature-based systematic review of genetic association studies in stroke abound several populations. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were determined for each gene-disease association. Following a review of 300 manuscripts, five candidate gene variants were analyzed among 152,797 individuals (45,433 cases and 107,364 controls).

resultsFor these five candidate genes studied, the prothrombin OR is 1,57 (1,23-2,89), the factor V Leiden OR is 1,43 (0,67-6,24), the mean OR of angiotensin I converting enzyme (ACE) insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism is 1,11 (1,02-1,25), the summary OR for the C677T variant of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is 1,23 (0,61-1,47) and the pooled OR for the apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene is 0,95 (0,77-1,14) .

conclusionThese data suggest the genetic associations of some genes with ischemic stroke and it is necessary to compete with other genes. Our findings could represent an epidemiological base and a useful tool to address further molecular investigations and to realize more detailed meta-analyses.
