The angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and acute myocardial infarction risk: a meta-analysis of 22 studies.
Synthesis in Molecular biology reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 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
Angiotensinogen, one of the most important proteins in the renin-angiotensin system, plays a key role in the progress of coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction (MI). Many studies have investigated the association between angiotensinogen gene M235T polymorphism and MI risk, but the results were inconsistent. We performed a meta-analysis of 22 studies on M235T polymorphism and MI risk published before November 2012. This meta-analysis included a total of 4,606 MI cases and 4,918 controls. Overall, the per-allele odds ratio (OR) of the 235T variant for total MI risk was 1.04 (95 % CI 0.92-1.17). When a recessive model was evaluated, the OR was 1.06 (95 % CI 0.96-1.17) and under a dominant model, the OR was 0.96 (95 % CI 0.82-1.11). Under pairwise comparisons, non-significant associations were found between M235T polymorphism and MI risk (MT vs. MM, OR, 0.96, 95 % CI 0.87-1.06; TT vs. MM, OR, 1.03, 95 % CI 0.83-1.28). Subgroup analyses in the different ethnic groups and different control sources were performed and no significant association was found also. Based on the available evidence, no association between M235T polymorphism and MI risk was observed, even in the sub-analysis concerning different races and control sources. The direction of further research should focus not only on the simple relationship of M235T polymorphism and MI risk, but also on gene-gene and gene-environment interaction.
