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

Mitochondrial dysfunction is an early defect in the pathogenesis of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD). One interesting candidate gene for mitochondrial dysfunction in LOAD is the translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 40 homolog (TOMM40) gene. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within TOMM40 have been shown to affect susceptibility to LOAD in Caucasians, while there are no studies on the association of the polymorphisms with LOAD risk in Han Chinese. Here, the association of TOMM40 polymorphisms in LOAD was investigated in a large Northern Han Chinese cohort consisting of 1,578 individuals. Both allelic and genotypic associations of three SNPs (rs157580, rs2075650, and rs11556505) with LOAD risk were observed in the total sample as well as in the non- APOE ε4 carriers. For rs1160985, the allele and genotype frequencies differed significantly only in APOE ε4 carriers. After adjustment for age, gender, and APOE ε4 status, the association remained statistically significant only for the rs157580 but not for rs2075650 and rs11556505. In contrast, the rs1160985 exhibited significant risk effect after adjustment. In addition, haplotype analysis confirmed that the haplotypes derived from SNPs in rs2075650, rs11556505, and rs1160985 were associated with either risk or protective effects. In summary, our findings suggest that the TOMM40 polymorphisms may play a role in the pathogenesis of LOAD in Han Chinese.
