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

The myeloperoxidase (MPO) gene 463G/A and 129G/A polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with coronary artery disease (CAD), but the results remain inconclusive. This meta-analysis was designed to clarify these controversies.PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were used to retrieve the relevant literature up to March 2015 according to keywords. A total of 8 case-control studies, including 3491 cases and 7293 controls, were included in this meta-analysis. Summary odds ratios (ORs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.There was strong evidence of an association between the MPO 463G/A polymorphism and CAD. The data revealed that only the dominant model was associated with CAD (dominant model: OR = 0.872, 95% CI = 0.77-0.99). Regarding the 129G/A gene polymorphism, the pooled OR for the genotype AA + AG versus GG was 0.906 (95% CI = 0.74-1.10).This meta-analysis suggested an association between the MPO 463G/A polymorphism and the risk of CAD, but there is no significant association between the MPO 129G/A gene polymorphism and CAD risk.
