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

aimA recent genome-wide association study identified a strong association of covert magnetic resonance imaging infarcts with the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2208454. The aim of this study was to determine whether the rs2208454 polymorphism is associated with an increased risk for ischemic stroke (IS).

methodsIschemic stroke patients (n = 712) and control subjects (n = 774) from a southern Chinese Han population were included. The snapshot technique was used for genotype analysis.

resultsCompared with the GT+GG or GG genotype, the frequency of the TT genotype was significantly higher in IS than in controls. After adjusting for age, gender, family history of IS, hypertension history, and history of diabetes mellitus, a significant correlation between the TT genotype and IS persisted (TT vs. GT+GG: adjusted OR = 1.79, 95% CI: 1.16-2.77; TT vs. GG: adjusted OR = 1.88, 95% CI: 1.20-2.94). In subgroup analyses, SNP rs2208454 was significantly associated with large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) (TT vs. GG: adjusted OR = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.19-3.93), but failed to show significant association with small-artery occlusion or cardioembolism IS subtypes.

conclusionsSingle nucleotide polymorphism rs2208454 confers an increased risk for IS in a southern Chinese Han population. When the IS subtype was examined, the effect of the SNP was restricted to LAA.
