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

Insertions and deletions (INDELs) represent a significant fraction of interindividual variation in the human genome yet their contribution to phenotypes is poorly understood. To confirm the quality of imputed INDELs and investigate their roles in mediating cardiometabolic phenotypes, genome-wide association and linkage analyses were performed for 15 phenotypes with 1,273,952 imputed INDELs in 1,024 Mexican-origin Americans. Imputation quality was validated using whole exome sequencing with an average kappa of 0.93 in common INDELs (minor allele frequencies [MAFs] ≥ 5%). Association analysis revealed one genome-wide significant association signal for the cholesterylester transfer protein gene (CETP) with high-density lipoprotein levels (rs36229491, P = 3.06 × 10
