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

Despite considerable progress in identifying specific HLA alleles as genetic risk factors for some forms of drug-induced liver injury, progress in understanding whether genetic polymorphisms relevant to drug disposition also contribute to risk for developing this serious toxicity has been more limited. Evidence from both candidate-gene case control studies and genome-wide association studies is now discussed. In the case of genes relevant to drug metabolism, polymorphisms in cytochromes P450, UDP-glucuronosyltransferases, N-acetyltransferases and glutathione S-transferases as risk factors for DILI are assessed. The relevance of ABC transporters to drug-induced liver injury is also considered, together with data showing associations of particular ABCB11, ABCB1 and ABCC2 polymorphisms with some forms of drug-induced liver injury. Very few of the associations with genes relevant to drug disposition that have been reported have been well replicated. Even apparently well-studied associations such as that between isoniazid liver injury and N-acetyltransferase 2 slow acetylators remain problematic, though it seems likely that polymorphisms in drug metabolism genes do contribute to risk for some specific drugs. A better understanding of genetic risk factors for drug-induced liver injury will require further genome-wide association studies with larger numbers of cases, especially for forms of drug-induced liver injury where HLA genotype does not appear to be a risk factor.
