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

introductionEndothelial lipase (EL) is a protein from the triglyceride lipase family which plays an important role in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. One of the most frequently studied variants is 584C/T which causes the amino acid threonine at codon 111 to convert to isoleucine. Many studies have shown the association of this variant with HDL-C level and CAD disease.

methodsThe population of this study consists of 140 patients (all males) with angiographically confirmed coronary artery disease (CAD) and 80 controls. Polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was carried out for genotyping of LIPG 584C/T. Data were analyzed using SPSS.

resultsThe results of the study indicated that the frequency of T allele was significantly lower among CAD patients than among controls (0.27 vs 0.36, P = .004). However, no significant correlation was found between the 584C/T variant and serum HDL-C level. Multivariate regression analysis confirmed that the T allele is significantly associated with CAD disregarding the age, hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, diabetes and HDL-C (OR = 0.494, 95% CI = 0.253- 0.968, P =.040).

conclusionIt was concluded that the T allele was associated with protection from CAD in Fars province independent of HDL-C level.
