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

objectiveWe aim to explain the correlation among IL-18 gene polymorphism, its protein expression and LEDVT in the Chinese Han population.

methodsA total of 138 LEDVT patients and 150 healthy people volunteered as LEDVT and control groups. All the data, including the gender, age, BMI, levels of TG, LDL/HDL, TC, GLU, APTT, BUN, Cr, ALT, AST, ApoA1, ApoB, and Fg was detected. IL-18 level, IL-18 -137G/C and -607C/A polymorphism, and risk factors of LEDVT were detected using ELISA, PCR-RFLP and multivariate logistic regression analysis, respectively.

resultsIncreased BMI, GLU, Fg, BUN, ApoB and IL-18 and decreased APTT were found in the LEDVT group. The GC + CC genotype and C allele in -137G/C polymorphism was elevated in the control group when compared to that in the LEDVT group. The IL-18 level was elevated in the case group when compared to the control group with respect to the same genotype in -607C/A and -137G/C polymorphisms, and in the LEDVT group, IL-18 level was higher in the GG genotype than that in the GC + CC genotype of -137G/C polymorphism. BUN, GG genotype and IL-18 level were independent risk factors, but APTT was a protective factor of LEDVT.

conclusionOn the basis of our results, we concluded that the GG genotype of -137G/C polymorphism and IL-18 level are independent risk factors of LEDVT, and IL-18 gene polymorphism affects the level of IL-18 in LEDVT patients.
