Interaction between the Val158Met catechol-O-methyltransferase gene variant and second-generation antipsychotic treatment on blood pressure in children.
Article in The pharmacogenomics journal, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Second-generation antipsychotic (SGA) medications are associated with cardiometabolic risk factors such as obesity and elevated blood pressure (BP) in some individuals. The goal of this study is to determine whether the Val158Met variant (rs4680) in the catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) gene, associated with BP in adults, is associated with elevated BP in SGA-treated children. A cross-sectional population of SGA-treated (n=134) and SGA-naive (n=168) children, ⩽18 years of age, were genotyped and assessed for markers of cardiometabolic health. An interaction was found between SGA treatment and COMT genotype for BP. After adjusting for covariates, SGA-treated children with the Met allele had higher systolic and diastolic BP (P=0.014 and P=0.034, respectively), and higher fasting glucose concentrations (P=0.030) compared with children with the Val/Val genotype. This was not observed in SGA-naive children. The Met allele of the COMT Val158Met variant may identify SGA-treated children at risk for elevated BP and fasting blood glucose concentrations.
