Association of lysyl oxidase-like 1 gene common sequence variants in Greek patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma.

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
purposeThree common sequence variants in the lysyl oxidase-like 1 (LOXL1) gene were recently associated with pseudoexfoliation (PEX) and pseudoexfoliation glaucoma (PEXG) in populations from various parts of the world. In this study, the genetic association of these variants was investigated in Greek patients with PEX and PEXG.
methodsThe three LOXL1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), one intronic (rs2165241) and two nonsynonymous coding SNPs (rs1048661: R141L and rs3825942: G153D), were genotyped in a total of 48 unrelated patients with PEX, 35 patients with PEXG, and 52 healthy subjects who had normal findings in repeated ophthalmic examinations. A genetic association study was performed.
resultsBetween the two coding SNPs, R141L did not show an association with PEX (p=0.297 for allele G, p=0.339 for genotype GG), whereas allele G of G153D showed a significant association (odds ratio [OR]=3.52, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.735-7.166, p=3.24×10(-4) for allele G, p=0.004 for genotype GG). Likewise, for the intronic SNP of rs2165241, genotype TT (p=0.005) and its corresponding allele T (OR=2.99, 95% CI=1.625-5.527, p=3.53×10(-4)) showed a significant association with PEX. The allele G of G153D showed a significant association with PEXG (OR=3.74, 95% CI=1.670-8.387, p=0.001). The combined haplotype GGT, consisting of all three risk alleles, was associated with PEX (p=0.037), conferring a 1.8-fold of increased risk to the disease (OR=1.799, 95% CI=1.04-3.13). Furthermore, the haplotype GGT presented in 39.8% of the patients with PEX and 26.9% of the controls.
conclusionsCertain genetic variants in LOXL1 confer risk for PEX in Greek populations, confirming in part findings in patients from Northern Europe.
