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

purposeAlthough many hypotheses regarding the pathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) have been generated, genetic studies have not identified specific genes that play a role in PCOS etiopathogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between TGF-β1 gene polymorphism and PCOS in Koreans.

methodA total of 51 Korean women with PCOS and 69 healthy women were enrolled. We analyzed 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the TGF-β1 gene (rs11466313, rs1800469, rs2317130, and rs4803457). We also analyzed laboratory measurements, such as free testosterone, glucose, and cholesterol.

resultsThe frequencies of rs1800469T allele negativity, rs4803457T allele negativity, the rs1800469CC genotype, and the rs4803457CC genotype showed positive associations with PCOS (P = 0.003, P = 0.027, P = 0.009, and P=0.031, respectively), whereas the haplotypes rs1800469C-rs4803457T and rs1800469T-rs4803457T showed negative associations with PCOS. A strong protective effect of the "rs1800469CT-rs4803457TT" combination (OR = 0.09) and a strong risk effect of "rs1800469CC-rs4803457CC" (OR = 6.23) for PCOS were observed. The rs1800469C/T and rs2317130C/T SNPs exhibited associations with several laboratory measurements with various levels of significance.

conclusionThe results demonstrated an association of TGF-β1 gene polymorphisms with the development and/or characteristics of PCOS in the Korean population.
