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

backgroundPolycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a complex multifactor disorder and genetic factors have been implicated in its pathogenesis. Our previous genome-wide association study (GWAS) had identified allele frequencies in several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in gene USP34 (Ubiquitin-Specific Protease 34) were significantly different between PCOS cases and controls. This study was aimed to replicate the previous results in another independent cohort.

methodsOne thousand two hundred eighteen PCOS cases and 1057 controls were recruited. Genotyping of two SNPs (rs17008097 and rs17008940) in USP34 gene were performed by TaqMan-MGB probe assay and genotype-phenotype analysis was conducted subsequently.

resultsThe differences of allele or genotype frequencies were not significant statistically between PCOS and controls, even after age and BMI adjustment. For clinical and metabolic features (LH, T and HOMA-IR) analysis in PCOS cases, no statistical differences among three genotypes of rs17008097 and rs17008940 were found. However, rs17008940 was shown to be slightly associated with BMI in PCOS cases rather than in controls, even after age adjustment (TC vs CC P = 0.006, OR = 1.042, 95% CI 1.012-1.073; TT vs CC P = 0.037, OR = 1.050, 95% CI 1.003-1.100).

conclusionsUSP34 gene polymorphisms (rs17008097 and rs17008940) may not be associated with PCOS in the Han Chinese women.
