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

BACKGROUND/

aimFat mass and obesity-associated (FTO) gene polymorphisms have been linked to the risk of obesity and diabetes, two well-recognized risk factors for renal disease. Our aim was to determine whether a common FTO polymorphism was associated with a reduced estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) independently of body mass index (BMI) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in a cohort of elderly individuals from the region of Asturias (Northern Spain; RENASTUR cohort).

methodsA total of 544 Spanish Caucasians aged 55-85 years were genotyped for the FTO rs9930506 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Individuals with a previous diagnosis of renal disease were not eligible for the study. The eGFR was calculated with the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease formula, and individuals with an eGFR of <60 ml/min/1.73 m(2) (n = 91) were considered as having impaired renal function. The effect of alleles and genotypes on BMI, hypertension, diabetes, eGFR and blood lipid values was statistically determined.

resultsThe rs9930506 GG genotype was significantly more common in the group with a BMI of >25 (p = 0.03; odds ratio = 2.43; 95% CI: 1.09-5.43). Age and T2DM were significant risk factors for a reduced eGFR, but neither obesity nor the FTO genotypes were associated with a reduced eGFR.

conclusionThe common FTO rs9930506 polymorphism was a risk factor for overweight and obesity in the RENASTUR cohort. However, this SNP was not associated with other comorbidities of the cardiorenal metabolic syndrome in this population.
