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

A recent genome-wide association study conducted in Caucasians has identified glutaminyl-peptide cyclotransferase (QPCT) gene as a susceptibility gene for schizophrenia, as its common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2373000 was significantly associated with the risk of this disease. To date, this finding has not been validated in other populations or ethnic groups. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of common SNPs spanning QPCT gene with the susceptibility of schizophrenia in a Han Chinese population comprising 440 schizophrenia patients and 450 control subjects. A total of 6 tagSNPs including rs2373000 was selected and then genotyped in our sample. Although the relation between rs2373000 and the risk of schizophrenia was not successfully replicated, we showed for the first time that the minor allele (C) of rs3770752 was associated with a reduced risk of schizophrenia (odds ratio (OR) = 0.645; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.486-0.855; P
