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 objective of this study was to explore the association of toll-like receptor (TLR) 4 rs1927911 and TLR2 rs5743708 with atherosclerotic cerebral infarction (ACI) and their effects on blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, and blood lipids in the Han population of Hunan Province. TLR4 rs1927911 and TLR2 rs5743708 were detected by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism in 170 patients with ACI and 149 healthy controls. Our results indicated that the genotype and allele frequencies of TLR4 rs1927911 were significantly different between ACI patients and controls, whereas those of TLR2 rs5743708 were not significantly different between the 2 groups. For TLR4 rs1927911, blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, and serum lipid levels were not significantly different among different genotypes in the ACI and control groups. The rs1927911 polymorphism of the TLR4 gene may be a risk factor for ACI in the Southern Han population of Hunan Province; however, it may not be associated with blood pressure, fasting blood sugar, or blood lipids.
