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 goal of our study is to test the association of IL6R rs7529229 polymorphism with CHD through a case-control study in Han Chinese population and a meta-analysis. Our result showed there is a lack of association between IL6R rs7529229 polymorphism and CHD on both genotype and allele levels in Han Chinese (P > 0.05). However, a meta-analysis among 11678 cases and 12861 controls showed that rs7529229-C allele was significantly associated with a decreased risk of CHD, especially in Europeans (P < 0.0001, odds ratio = 0.93, 95% confidential interval = 0.89-0.96). Since there is significant difference among different populations, further studies are warranted to test the contribution of rs7529229 to CHD in other ethnic populations.
