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

objectivesThe Sst-I polymorphic site on the 3' untranslated region of the apo CIII gene, has been previously reported to be associated with hypertriglyceridemia. The aim of the present study was to explore the association between Sst-I polymorphism with plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels in hyperlipidemic (HLP) patients from Semnan province, Iran. MATERIALS AND

methodsGenomic DNA was prepared from 76 patients with HLP and 75 matched healthy subjects. DNA samples were amplified by polymerase chain reaction. The samples were analyzed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method using SstI enzyme.

resultsThe genotype and allelic frequencies for this polymorphism were significantly different between HLP and normolipidemic groups (P< 0.002). Plasma triglyceride (TG) level was higher in both groups, in S2S2 genotype was more than in the S1S1and S1S2 genotypes, however, there was no significant difference in comparison with the control group. Subjects with S1S2 + S2S2 genotypes in compare to S1S1 genotype had odd ratio of 2.8 (95% CI: 1.41-5.56, P< 0.003) for developing hypertriglyceridemia.

conclusionThe results showed that the presence of rare S2 allele was associated with change in TG level in the selected population.
