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

backgroundThe scavenger receptor class B type I (SCARB1) gene plays an important role in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) metabolism and may be involved in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The rs5888 (C/T) single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the SCARB1 gene is functional, and we therefore examined the association between rs5888 and CAD.

methodsThe rs5888 genotypes were analyzed in 287 Chinese patients with CAD and 367 controls via the high-resolution melting curve (HRM) method. Allele frequency and genotype distribution were compared. The levels of plasma triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), HDL-C, and low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) were also compared between the groups with different genotypes.

resultsThe proportion of subjects with TT and CT genotypes in the control group was significantly higher than that in the CAD group (50.95% vs. 32.75%, p < 0.001). The frequency of individuals with T alleles in the control group was significantly higher than that in the CAD group (28.75% vs. 17.25%, p < 0.001). In the combined population (CAD and control groups), the HDL-C concentration in individuals with the TT genotype was significantly higher than in those with the CT genotype (1.81 ± 1.29 vs. 1.42 ± 0.56, p = 0.026) or in those with the CC genotype (1.81 ± 1.29 vs. 1.42 ± 0.72, p = 0.021).

conclusionThe results of this study suggest that the rs5888 SNP in the SCARB1 gene is associated with CAD; furthermore, the TT genotype is associated with a higher HDL-C concentration.
