TNF-α haplotype association with polycystic ovary syndrome - a South Indian study.

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
backgroundTumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α), is a proinflammatory cytokine in the pathogenesis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS). In order to investigate the role of rs1800629 and rs1799964 polymorphisms in relation to anthropometric measures, family history of complex diseases, diet and clinical features, we performed a case control study in PCOS women from South India.
methodsA total of 589 samples comprising of 283 patients and 306 controls were enrolled in the present study. Patients were selected based on Rotterdam criteria and ultrasound scanned normal women were selected as controls. Following extraction of DNA, genotyping for rs1800629 and rs1799964 was performed by polymerase chain reaction using tetra primers and PCR-RFLP respectively.
resultsThe distribution of genotypes for rs1799964 was significantly different between the groups (p = 0.001), however it was not for rs1800629. Haplotype analysis revealed a significant difference between patients and controls. The predisposing and protective role of haplotype with mutant allele at both loci (combination 3) and haplotype with mutant allele at either loci was reflected by the over representation of combination 3 in patients and combination 2 in controls respectively. In addition, rs1799964 showed an association with dietary habit, clinical hyperandrogenism and AAO. The modifying role of TT genotype on age at onset was noted in quartile analysis.
conclusionReplicative studies on the influence of TNF-α polymorphism in different ethnic groups may identify the potentiality of these polymorphisms as markers of inflammation and in turn may help the clinicians for the better management of the condition.
