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 causal mutations and genetic polymorphisms associated with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease (PD) have been extensively described. To explore the potential contribution of insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphisms (indels) to the risk of PD in a Chinese population, we performed genetic analyses of indel loci in ACE, DJ-1, and GIGYF2 genes. Genomic DNA was extracted from venous blood of 348 PD patients and 325 age- and sex-matched controls without neurodegenerative disease. Genotyping of the indel loci was performed by fragment length analysis after PCR and DNA sequencing. Our results showed a statistically significant association for both allele X (alleles without 5) vs. 5 (odds ratio = 1.378, 95% confidence interval = 1.112-1.708, P = 0.003) and genotype 5/X+X/X vs. 5/5 (odds ratio = 1.681, 95% confidence interval = 1.174-2.407, P = 0.004) in the GIGYF2 locus; however, no significant differences were detected for the ACE and DJ-1 indels. After stratification by gender, no significant differences were observed in any indels. These results indicate that the GIGYF2 indel may be associated with increased risk of PD in northern China.
