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

backgroundPrevious genome-wide association study (GWAS) of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) in Han Chinese population has found that SNPs in LPP gene were nominally significant in PCOS patients (P around 10E-05). Replication of the GWAS was applied to further confirm the relationship between LPP gene and PCOS.

methodsThree polymorphisms of LPP gene (rs715790, rs4449306, rs6782041) were selected and replicated in additional 1132 PCOS cases and 1142 controls. Genotyping of LPP gene was carried out by Taqman-MGB method.

resultsIn rs715790, the allele frequency is significantly different between the PCOS group and the control group. Meta-analysis showed that the allele frequencies of the three SNPs rs715790 (P(meta) =1.89E-05, OR=1.23), rs4449306 (P(meta) =3.0E-04, OR=1.10), rs6782041 (P(meta) = 2.0E-04, OR=1.09), were significantly different between PCOS cases and controls.

conclusionsOur results suggest that LPP gene might be a novel candidate for PCOS.
