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

A number of genetic variants have been identified in the lipoprotein lipase (LPL) gene. We aimed to investigate the possible associations between LPL gene and apolipoprotein C3 (APOC3) gene polymorphisms with coronary artery disease (CAD) and its severity, as well as the interaction between these polymorphisms and classical risk factors. The HindIII variant of LPL and APOC3 were genotyped in 156 CAD patients and 154 subjects as a control group. We found that the odds ratio (OR) estimating the effect of joint exposure to H2H2 genotype of LPL and S2S2 genotype of APOC3 was significantly higher than the OR estimating the effect of each factor in the absence of the other. The present study points to a synergistic interaction between H2H2 genotype of LPL gene and S2S2 genotype of APOC3 gene that leads to increased severity of CAD. Smoking, low HDL, and diabetes increased the severity of CAD in patients carrying these risky genotypes.
