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

backgroundAngiotensinogen (AGT) T174M gene polymorphism has been suggested to be linked to risk of coronary artery disease, however, results from studies of this association have been inconsistent. In this study, we assess the relationship between AGT T174M gene polymorphism and coronary artery disease.

methodsWe conducted a meta-analysis of 18 case-control studies with 8,147 coronary artery disease cases and 5,344 controls in Google scholar, PubMed, Cochrane Library and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases to identify eligible studies published by July, 2012. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were calculated from these studies.

resultsOverall, a significant association was found between angiotensinogen T174M polymorphism and coronary artery disease risk when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (TT vs. MM: OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.40-0.71; dominant model: OR = 1.16, 95% CI = 1.01-1.35; recessive model: OR = 0.54, 95% CI = 0.40-0.72). In a stratified analysis, the results indicate a significant association in Caucasians suffering from coronary stenosis (TT vs. MM: OR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.23-0.63; recessive model: OR = 0.39, 95% CI = 0.23-0.64). No significant increased risk for coronary artery disease was found in Asians.

conclusionsThe meta-analysis indicate a significant association of T174M polymorphism with coronary stenosis risk in Caucasians.
