Association between ACE polymorphisms and osteoarthritis susceptibility.

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.
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
objectiveThe present study was designed to investigate the association of angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) rs4343 and rs4362 polymorphisms with the susceptibility to osteoarthritis (OA).
methods109 knee OA patients and 114 healthy people were enrolled in the study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to perform the genotyping for two groups and the linkage disequilibrium and haplotype were analyzed using Haploview software. The differences of genotype and allele frequencies were analyzed by χ(2) test and Fisher's exact test. The relationship between ACE polymorphisms and OA susceptibility was represented by odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs).
resultsThe genotypes distributions of ACE rs4343 and rs4362 polymorphisms in control groups were accordance with HWE. ACE rs4343 polymorphism was associated with the significantly increased risk of OA (AG vs. AA: OR=2.41, P=0.003; GG vs. AA: OR=5.35, P=0.015; G vs. A: OR=2.27, P<0.001). Similarly, rs4362 polymorphisms was also a risk factor for OA (CT vs. CC: OR=2.60, P=0.005; TT vs. CC: OR=3.15, P=0.003; T vs. C: OR=1.88, P=0.001). The result of haplotype analysis showed complete linkage disequilibrium in rs 4343 and rs 4362 polymorphisms. The G-T haplotype significantly increased OA susceptibility, but A-C is a protective factor for the occurrence of OA.
conclusionSignificant correlation exists between ACE rs4343 and rs4362 polymorphisms and OA. In haplotype analysis, A-C haplotype may provide protection against OA, and G-T haplotype may be a risk factor for the development of OA.
