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

Variable responsiveness to zileuton, a leukotriene antagonist used to treat asthma, may be due in part to genetic variation. While individual SNPs were previously associated with zileuton-related lung function changes, specific quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and biological pathways that may contribute have not been identified. In this study, we investigated the hypothesis that genetic variation within biological pathways is associated with zileuton response. We performed an integrative QTL mapping and pathway enrichment study to investigate data from a GWAS of zileuton response, in addition to mRNA expression profiles and leukotriene production data from lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs) (derived from asthmatics) that were treated with zileuton or ethanol (control). We identified 1060 QTLs jointly associated with zileuton-related differential LTB
