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 aim of this study was to investigate the association of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphism and hypertension in a Chinese Han population. The authors genotyped 3 tagSNPs (rs11574129, rs2228570, and rs739837) of the VDR gene using TaqMan assays in a case-control study including 2409 patients with hypertension and 3063 controls. The results showed that rs2228570 presented statistical correlations with decreased risk of male hypertension after adjustment for confounding factors, odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of additive, dominant, and recessive models were 0.828 (0.74-0.927), 0.75 (0.631-0.89), and 0.816 (0.67-0.995), and P values were .001, .001, and .044, respectively. Significant associations were found in the smoking population and ORs (95% CIs) of additive and dominant models were 0.81 (0.69-0.952) and 0.71 (0.552-0.913) (P values .011 and .008), respectively, after adjustment for covariates. Quantitative trait analysis indicated that the untreated cases with TT genotype of rs2228570 showed higher systolic blood pressure compared with the TC/CC genotype (P=.015). Our findings suggest that VDR genetic polymorphism rs2228570 is significantly associated with the decreased risk of hypertension in Chinese men and smokers.
