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

backgroundAutosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a multisystemic and progressive disorder characterized by cyst formation and kidney enlargement and ultimately renal failure. Reduction of CKD progression in the ADPKD by pharmacological blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) using ACE inhibitors indicated the involvement of RAAS pathway in the progression of CKD. The aim of the present study is to investigate the role of angiotensinogen tag-single nucleotide polymorphisms (AGT tag-SNPs) in progression of CKD.

methodsTwelve AGT tag-SNPs were genotyped in 102 ADPKD patients and 106 non-ADPKD subjects using FRET-based KASPar method. Genotypes and haplotypes were compared between ADPKD and controls. The effect of genotypes and hypertension on CKD progression was assessed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression. Mantel-Haenszel (M-H) stratified analysis was performed to study the interaction between CKD stages and hypertension.

resultsOf the twelve tag-SNPs analyzed, only rs11122578 SNP deviated Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in controls. Significant association between two AGT polymorphisms (rs11122577 and rs4762) and ADPKD was observed. Analysis of linkage disequilibrium revealed two haplotype blocks and haplotypes are not associated with ADPKD. The univariate analysis revealed that the age, hypertension, family history of diabetes and AGT rs4762 contributed to the progression of CKD in ADPKD. The modifier effect of these factors remained even after controlling other variables in multivariate analysis.

conclusionsThe results of our study suggest significant association between Thr207Met polymorphism of AGT and CKD progression and acts as an effect modifier of renal disease progression in ADPKD.
