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

objectivesTo investigate the role of amino acid substitution variants Q192R and C698T in the development of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency in a Saudi male population.

methodsThis case-control study was carried out in 200 Saudi male individuals: 100 patients with G6PD deficiency, and 100 control subjects collected between July and August 2011 in the Taif region of Saudi Arabia. A total of 2100 male Saudi individuals were screened by a fluorescence spot test, and 100 with G6PD deficiency were selected. Two common variants PON1 (rs662) and C5L2 (rs149572881) were genotyped using polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.

resultsThe results showed that the R allele and QR genotype were associated with the Q192R polymorphism in PON1 (R versus Q odds ratio [OR], 1.72; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.1-2.6; p=0.01; and QR versus QQ: OR, 1.98; 95% CI, 1.1-3.6; p=0.02). All the C698T genotypes and allele frequencies in C5L2 were almost similar in both the cases and controls (CT versus CC: OR, 2.04; 95% CI, 0.3-11.4; p=0.40; and T versus C: OR, 2.02; 95% CI, 0.3-11.1; p=0.41).

conclusionsThese findings suggest the association of PON1 with G6PD deficiency in the Saudi male population studied herein. Future studies, including correlation analyses between the clinical features and genotypes in populations of different ethnicities, are warranted to confirm the disease association with these genetic mutations.
