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

introductionPro12Ala polymorphism is a missense mutation at codon 12 in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ gene (PPARG). This polymorphism is known to be associated with increased insulin sensitivity. Pioglitazone, a thiazolidinedione, is an anti-diabetic drug which acts as an agonist at PPAR γ receptor.

aimTo determine the association between Pro12Ala polymorphism of the PPARG and variation in therapeutic response to the PPARγ agonist, pioglitazone. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe study was done as a hospital based pilot project in 30 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, on treatment with sulfonylurea or metformin but without adequate glycaemic control. They were started on pioglitazone as add on therapy for a period of 12 weeks. The participants were categorized as responders and non-responders based on the change in HbA1C level after 12 weeks. Pro12Ala polymorphism was analysed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Logistic regression analysis was done to evaluate the associations between age, baseline body weight, BMI, waist circumference, waist-hip ratio and Pro12Ala variants with the response to pioglitazone. The p-value< 0.05 was considered significant.

resultsThe frequency distributions of PPAR gamma genotypes were 80% for Pro/Pro and 20% for Pro/Ala in the study population. Among the study participants, 30% were non-responders and 70% responders to pioglitazone. A significantly higher frequency of the polymorphism was detected in the responders (p=0.005) compared to non-responders group.

conclusionOur study suggests that there is a potential association between Pro12Ala polymorphism and glycaemic response to pioglitazone.
