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

Premature coronary artery disease (PCAD) is known to have a particularly strong genetic component. We aimed to investigate the association between angiotensin II receptor type 1 (ATR1) or type II (ATR2) genes polymorphisms and PCAD with or without metabolic syndrome in males. 132 male patients with PCAD and 132 controls were included in the study. ATR1 and ATR2 genes polymorphisms were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction. The present study revealed that ATR1 CC genotype and ATR2 G allele increased the risk of PCAD by 2.9 and 1.3 respectively as well as they increased susceptibility to metabolic syndrome by 4.5 and 2.3 respectively. The present study proved that diabetes, smoking, obesity, total cholesterol, triglycerides, LDLc and HDLc were independent risk factors for the development of PCAD. We concluded that ATR1 CC genotype and ATR2 G allele increased the susceptibility of Egyptian males to have PCAD. The increased susceptibility to have metabolic syndrome could be one of the mechanisms leading to the development of PCAD in subjects carrying one or both of these polymorphisms.
