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

AIMS/

introductionChemokine ligand 5 (CCL5) is a member of the CC-chemokine family expressed in various organs. It contributes to the migration of monocytes/macrophages into injured vascular walls by binding with its receptor chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5). Many studies have accessed the association between CCL5/CCR5 gene promoter polymorphisms and diabetic microvascular complications (DMI). However, the results are conflicting and inconclusive. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the association more precisely. MATERIALS AND

methodsTrials were retrieved through PubMed, Embase, Medline, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Web of Science and Cochrane database without restrictions on language. The pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to describe the strength of association with DMI.

resultsData were obtained from 11 case-control studies that included 2,737 DMI patients and 2,435 diabetic control subjects. In the overall analysis, the CCL5-403 G/A and CCL5-28 C/G gene polymorphisms were not significantly associated with the risk of DMI. However, CCR5-59029 G/A was an independent risk factor of DMI in a dominant model (OR 1.77, 95% CI 1.06-2.97). Subgroup analysis showed that the risk of the CCR5 59029A-positive genotype was significant in Asians (OR 2.08, 95% CI 1.68-2.57). In addition, the CCR5 59029A-positive genotype was associated with increased risk of albuminuria.

conclusionsThere were no associations of CCL5 gene promoter polymorphism with the risk of DMI. However, the 59029A polymorphism in CCR5 might affect individual susceptibility for DMI.
