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.

Abstract

backgroundPhosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D), through the regulation of cyclic AMP, modulates inflammation and other processes that affect atherosclerosis and stroke. A PDE4D polymorphism, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 83 (rs966221), is associated with ischemic stroke. The association of SNP 83 with postoperative cognitive dysfunction has never been investigated.

objectiveTo determine whether SNP 83 is associated with cognitive dysfunction 1 day and 1 month following carotid endarterectomy (CEA).

methodsThree hundred fourteen patients with high-grade carotid stenosis scheduled for CEA consented to participate in this single-center cohort study of cognitive dysfunction.

resultsPatients with the C/C genotype of SNP 83 exhibited significantly more cognitive dysfunction at 1 day (29.7%) than the C/T (15.8%, P = .008) and T/T (12.7%, P = .01) genotypes. In a multivariate logistic regression model, C/T and T/T genotypes were both associated with significantly decreased odds of cognitive dysfunction compared with the C/C genotype (odds ratio, 0.45 [0.24-0.83], P = .01 and odds ratio, 0.33 [0.12-0.77], P = .02). There were no significant associations at 1 month.

conclusionThe C/C genotype of SNP 83 is significantly associated with the highest incidence of cognitive dysfunction 1 day following CEA in comparison with the C/T and T/T genotypes. This PDE4D genotype may lead to accelerated cyclic AMP degradation and subsequently elevated inflammation 1 day after CEA. These observations, in conjunction with previous studies, suggest that elevated inflammatory states may be partially responsible for the development of cognitive dysfunction after CEA, but more investigation is required.
