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

backgroundThe risk of bradykinin B2 receptor (BDKRB2) -58T/C gene polymorphism on hypertension remains controversial. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe Cochrane Library, Chinese Biomedical Database, EBSCO, Embase, ISI, MEDLINE, and PubMed were retrieved, and relevant articles were selected.

resultsThe significant association between BDKRB2-58T/C gene polymorphism and risk of hypertension were found under C-allele comparison [odds ratio (OR): 1.22, 95% confidential intervals (CI): 1.05-1.42, recessive model (OR: 1.32, 95% CI: 1.07-1.64), dominant model (OR: 0.74, 95% CI: 0.58-0.94), homozygote model (OR: 1.66, 95% CI: 1.11-2.47) and heterozygote model (OR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.06-1.43). The magnitude of the association between the BDKRB2-58T/C gene polymorphism and risk of hypertension was substantiated in Asians under C-allele comparison (OR: 1.24, 95% CI: 1.04-1.49), recessive model (OR: 1.39, 95% CI: 1.04-1.86), dominant model (OR: 0.72, 95% CI: 0.56-0.93), homozygote model (OR: 1.78, 95% CI: 1.09-2.90) and heterozygote model (OR: 1.26, 95% CI: 1.07-1.49). No publication bias was found in the meta-analysis.

conclusionsThe meta-analysis suggested -58C allele and -58CC genotype increase the risk of hypertension. Inversely, -58TT genotype decreases the risk of hypertension.
