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

backgroundGlutathione peroxidase-1 (GPX-1) activity was reported to be useful marker for monitoring cardiovascular disease. However, accurate assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD) using GPX-1 polymorphism is limited for South Asian population. Present study aim to assess GPX-1activity and GPX-1 polymorphismin patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) who were confirmed with coronary angiography findings and in apparently healthy subjects.

methodsCase control study was carried out with 85 patients (58 males and 27 females) 40-60 years of age confirmed as having CAD on coronary angiography findings and 85 age and sex matched healthy volunteers as controls. Blood samples were analyzed for erythrocyte GPX-1 activity and GPX-1 polymorphism in both groups and the severity of CAD was assessed using coronary angiography scoring system based on vessel, stenosis and extent score.

resultsCoronary angiography scores indicated that erythrocyteGPX-1 cutoff value of 23.9 U/gHb showed a high sensitivity and negative predictive value in ruling out major vessel disease. The GPX-1 Pro198Leu (CT) polymorphism was higher in patients with CAD (25.3 %) when compared to controls (10.7 %). Pro198Leu (CT) genotype showed a 2.84 fold risk for CAD [odds ratio 2.84 (95 % CI 1.15-6.98), p = 0.019].

conclusionCoronary angiography findings indicated that individuals possessing Pro198Leu (CT) polymorphism were found to be associated with low erythrocyte GPX-1 activity and increased susceptibility for CAD.
