A candidate gene study for the association of host single nucleotide polymorphisms with liver cirrhosis risk in chinese hepatitis B patients.
Trial report in Genetic testing and molecular biomarkers, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
BACKGROUND AND
aimsRecently, genetic association studies have linked a number of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with liver fibrosis risk of hepatitis C. The present study was designed to validate the association of emerging SNPs with development of liver cirrhosis and chronicity in a Chinese population infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV).
methods714 Chinese subjects with persistent HBV infection (429 with evident liver cirrhosis and 285 without cirrhosis clinically or pathologically) and 280 subjects with spontaneous HBV clearance were studied. Six SNPs in five candidate genes were detected with the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) method. The distribution of each polymorphism was compared between the age-matched cirrhotic and noncirrhotic subjects, and between subjects with persistent infection and spontaneous HBV clearance.
resultsThe rs2679757 polymorphism of antizyme inhibitor 1 (AZIN1) gene was associated with the risk of cirrhosis (odds ratio [OR] for GG+AG versus AA=1.47, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.08-2.01, p=0.01). So was rs886277 in the transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M, member 5 (TRPM5) gene (OR for CC versus CT+TT=1.63, 95% CI=1.20-2.22, p=0.002). The frequencies of these two SNPs were also associated with the severity of decompensated cirrhosis based on the Child-Pugh classification. Genotype frequencies of other SNPs were not different between the cirrhotic and noncirrhotic groups. No SNPs were associated with the outcome of spontaneous HBV clearance.
conclusionsAZIN1 rs2679757 and TRPM5 rs886277 are associated with the risk of HBV-related liver cirrhosis in Chinese. The emerging SNPs warrant further clinical validation in other cohorts or ethnic groups, and could lead to mechanistic studies to reveal their contributions to fibrosis progression.
