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

aims/hypothesisAccording to genome-wide association studies (GWAS) a locus in the HNF1A gene has pleiotropic effects on several metabolic traits. In a large single-centre study we used the intronic variant rs1183910 located in a region with no or low recombination rate as an instrument for the HNF1A locus to evaluate pleiotropic effects of this locus on the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, as well as on body composition and levels of non-fasting glucose, lipids, acute-phase reactants, and biomarkers of liver and pancreas function.

methodsWe investigated 60,283 individuals from the Danish general population who were all examined in the same laboratory, comprising the Copenhagen General Population Study.

resultsWe confirm previous GWAS findings, namely that the minor rs1183910 A allele is associated with an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes (p(trend) = 0.003), decreased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP; p(trend) = 6 × 10(-76)) and γ-glutamyltransferase (p(trend) = 4 × 10(-48)), and increased levels of total cholesterol (p(trend) = 3 × 10(-10)) and LDL-cholesterol (p(trend) = 3 × 10(-11)). For the first time, we report that the minor rs1183910 A allele is associated with increased levels of non-fasting plasma glucose (p(trend) = 3 × 10(-5)), apolipoprotein B (ApoB; p(trend) = 1 × 10(-4)) and alkaline phosphatase (p(trend) = 5 × 10(-14)), and decreased levels of bilirubin (p trend = 3 × 10(-5)). Our results suggest that the association with increased risk of type 2 diabetes is driven by high non-fasting glucose levels. CONCLUSIONS/

interpretationThe minor rs1183910 A allele prompts a potential adverse metabolic profile with increased levels of non-fasting glucose, total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, ApoB, and alkaline phosphatase, but simultaneously has potential beneficial effects through decreased levels of CRP, γ-glutamyltransferase and bilirubin.
