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

Clopidogrel efficacy is influenced by genetic variation of cytochrome P450 (CYP)2C19, however, few studies have considered patients who have a stroke. We used electronic medical records (EMRs) linked to a bioresource to examine real-world implications of clopidogrel pharmacogenetics in stroke. Patients hospitalized for any arterial thrombo-occlusive (ATO) event who subsequently redeemed clopidogrel prescriptions in the community were entered into the study (n = 651). During 24-month follow-up, the primary endpoint of recurrent ATO or death occurred in 299 patients (46%). CYP2C19*2 loss-of-function allele carriers had an increased risk (hazard ratio (HR) = 1.29; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.04-1.59; P = 0.019). In the ischemic stroke subgroup (n = 94), the estimate of risk was greater (HR = 2.23; 95% CI = 1.17-4.24; P = 0.015), which was further supported by a meta-analysis of available studies. In conclusion, we have demonstrated the clinical impact of CYP2C19*2 on clopidogrel efficacy using a purely EMR approach. This suggests that the risk in the ischemic stroke population may be particularly high.
