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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundExcessive alcohol intake can result in the oxidative stress in cells and the genetic variations of alcohol-metabolizing enzymes are responsible for the different degrees of toxicity of alcohol in several organs, such as the liver and immunological systems. We hypothesized that the alteration of oxidative stress due to some genetic variations of oxidative stress-related enzymes could result in changes of specific biomarkers, and heavy drinkers could be cautioned about the predictive likelihood to induce drinking-induced diseases.

methodsA total of 108 heavy drinkers and 106 nonheavy drinkers were enrolled and the hematological, biochemical, and immunological tests were measured; the genotypes of oxidative stress-related enzymes, including manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD1183T>C), glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1Pro198Leu), catalase (CAT-262C>T), and myeloperoxidase (MPO-463G>A), were assayed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).

resultsFor the males, the levels of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin (CDT), malondialdehyde (MDA), CD4(+), immunoglobulin G (IgG), immunoglobulin M (IgM), and IL-6 were significantly different between the two groups. Furthermore, there were higher proportions of CD19(+) cells and lower TNF-α levels in heavy drinkers with the MnSOD C carriers, and there were higher percentages of CD19(+) cells and IL-6 levels in heavy drinkers with the combined genotypes of MnSOD C carriers and MPO A carriers.

conclusionsOur findings indicate that heavy drinkers may be cautioned predictive likelihood for them to induce drinking-induced diseases by analyzing their MnSOD genotypes and immunological biomarkers.
