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

backgroundPrevious studies conducted in various geographical and ethnical populations have shown that Alpha-1-antitrypsin (Alpha-1-AT) expression affects the occurrence and progression of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We aimed to explore the associations of rs9944155AG, rs1051052AG, and rs1243166AG polymorphisms in the Alpha-1-AT gene with the risk of COPD in Uygur population in the Kashgar region.

methodsFrom March 2013 to December 2015, a total of 225 Uygur COPD patients and 198 healthy people were recruited as cases and controls, respectively, in Kashgar region. DNA was extracted according to the protocol of the DNA genome kit, and Sequenom MassARRAY single-nucleotide polymorphism technology was used for genotype determination. Serum concentration of Alpha-1-AT was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. A logistic regression model was used to estimate the associations of polymorphisms with COPD.

resultsThe rs1243166-G allele was associated with a higher risk of COPD (odds ratio [OR] = 2.039, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.116-3.725, P = 0.019). In cases, Alpha-1-AT levels were the highest among participants carrying rs1243166 AG genotype, followed by AA and GG genotype (χ

conclusionsrs1243166, rs9944155, and rs1051052 sites of Alpha-1-AT may be associated with the COPD morbidity in Uygur population. While rs1243166-G allele and rs1051052-G allele are associated with an increased risk of developing COPD, rs9944155-G allele is a protect locus in Uygur population. Alpha-1-AT levels in Uygur COPD patients were lower than those in healthy people and differed among patients with different rs1051052 AG and rs1243166 AG genotypes.
