Lack of association of the 3'-UTR polymorphism (rs1017) in the ISL1 gene and risk of congenital heart disease in the white population.
Article in Pediatric cardiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are the most prevalent of all birth defects and the leading cause of death in the first year of life. The molecular causes of most CHDs remain largely unknown. The LIM homeodomain transcriptor factor ISL1 is a marker for undifferentiated cardiac progenitor cells that give rise to both the right ventricle and the inflow and outflow tracts, which are affected by several cardiovascular malformations. Contradictory findings about the role of the ISL1 rs1017 single-nucleotide polymorphism in increasing the risk of CHD have been reported. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether the ISL1 rs1017 genetic polymorphism conferred susceptibility to CHD in the white population. In a case-control study design, 309 patients with CHD (197 men [age 21.3 ± 25.2]) and 500 healthy controls (272 men [age 15.7 ± 21.3]) were genotyped for the ISL1 rs1017 polymorphism. No significant difference in the genotype and variant allele distributions was found between patients and controls. In addition, the ISL1 rs1017 polymorphism was not associated with the risk of CHD neither overall (p = 0.7) nor stratifying the population by sex and CHD classification. In conclusion, ISL1 common variant rs1017 is not associated with increased genetic risk of CHD in the white population.
