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

aimThe present study was designed to investigate whether the three-apolipoprotein (AI, B, E) gene polymorphisms were related to alter their plasma protein levels and hence associated to coronary artery disease (CAD).

methodsWe determined distribution of MspI apo AI, EcoRI apo B, HhaI apo E gene polymorphisms, plasma apolipoproteins and lipids levels among 150 patients having CAD admitted to the Department of Cardiology, N.R.S. Medical College & Hospital, Kolkata, India during June 2010-June 2012 and 150 age sex matched healthy controls.

resultsWe found that ApoAI concentration of studied population was significantly different in each genotypes of -75 G/A apo AI (p < 0.0001) gene polymorphism. A significant association was found in multivariate analysis for the genotypes with apo E4 allele [odds ratio (OR): 3.639; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.019-12.995, p = 0.040] with four conventional risk factors (i.e. smoking, low-density lipoprotein, ApoAI and ApoB) with CAD. In contrast E2 allele has reverse effect, but the genotypes with apo E2 allele was no longer significant in the multivariate model (OR: 1.788; 95% CI: 0.400-8.001, p = 0.447) where as being significant in univariate analysis (OR: 0.219; 95% CI: 0.087-0.552, p = 0.001).

conclusionsOur findings suggest that the polymorphisms apo AI MspI and apo B EcoRI do not seem to affect CAD. But the genotype with E4 allele of apo E gene independent of other risk factors is associated with this disease.
