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

The sodium/proton exchanger protein 3 (NHE3) is located in chemosensitive areas of the medulla oblongata and plays an important role in the central control of respiration. Overexpression of NHE3 is correlated with lower respiration and might therefore contribute to the vulnerability of infants dying suddenly and unexpected (sudden infant death syndrome, SIDS). Our aim in this study was to verify already reported genetic variations in the NHE3 gene in an independent SIDS cohort from Switzerland. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the promoter region (G1131A and C1197T) and one variation in the coding sequence of exon 16 (C2405T) in the NHE3 gene were analyzed in 160 Caucasian SIDS infants and 192 Swiss adult controls by using a single base extension method (SNaPshot multiplex). No significant differences were detected in the allelic frequencies of the three NHE3 polymorphisms between SIDS cases and controls. We conclude that the three investigated NHE3 SNPs are unlikely to play a major role in the pathogenesis of SIDS in Caucasian infants. However, further genetic investigations in different ethnicities are required to determine whether variations in NHE3 are associated with an increased SIDS risk.
