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

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have associated several genetic variants with late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD), a neurodegenerative disease. Among those, rs3764650 ABCA7, rs6656401 CR1, and rs744373 BIN1 were associated as risk factors for LOAD, while rs11136000 CLU and rs610932 MS4A6A were protective. Recently, several case-control studies have investigated the association of these polymorphisms with AD. However, not all meta-analyses analyzed these variants across different ethnic groups. Therefore, we performed an updated meta-analysis of rs3764650 ABCA7, rs6656401 CR1, rs744373 BIN1, rs11136000 CLU, and rs610932 MS4A6A variants associated with LOAD, considering different ethnic populations. We utilized samples from 38 articles, comprising a total of 24,771 patients and 35,324 controls obtained through the PubMed database. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) for polymorphisms were calculated by allelic comparison as an additive genetic model. We validated the risk for LOAD with BIN1 (rs744373), CR1 (rs6656401), and ABCA7 (rs376465), as well as the protective association for MS4A6A (rs610932) and CLU (rs11136000) variants.
