Association of polymorphisms in mitofusin-2 gene with type 2 diabetes in Han Chinese.
Article in Journal of biomedicine & biotechnology, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
MFN2 and ESRRA are candidate genes involved in the pathogenesis of T2D. Five tag-SNPs in MFN2 gene and three in ESRRA gene were selected and genotyped with TaqMan or PCR-RFLP method in stage 1 populations (555 patients with T2D and 649 control subjects) and stage 2 populations (546 patients with T2D versus 419 control subjects) in Han Chinese. And combining our published data, we estimated the interactions between genetic variants in the MFN2, ESRRA, and PGC-1α genes on the T2D risk using MDR. rs873458 (G > A) and rs2878677 (C > T) in MFN2 gene were significantly associated with T2D (P = 0.005 and 0.01) in stage 1 populations, and the association of other SNPs with T2D was not found. In stage 2 populations, we further confirmed the association between rs2878677 and T2D (P = 0.01). Combining the two stage populations, the data supported more significant effect of rs873458 and rs2878677 on T2D risk (P = 0.003 and 0.0001). A-C-G-T-C and G-T-C-T-C in MFN2 had significant association with T2D (P = 0.007 and 0.009). The present study also provided the evidence that MFN2 had interactions with PGC-1α (P < 0.0001) or ESRRA (P < 0.0001). This study suggested a role of MFN2 polymorphism in the risk of T2D; however, further studies are needed.
