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

Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is a severe multifactorial genetic disorder. Microarray studies indicated GAL, GAP43 and NRSN1 might contribute to the altered risk in HSCR. Thus, we focused on genetic variations in GAL, GAP43 and NRSN1, and the gene-gene interactions involved in HSCR susceptibility. We recruited a strategy combining case-control study and MassArray system with interaction network analysis. For GAL, GAP43 and NRSN1, a total of 18 polymorphisms were assessed in 104 subjects with sporadic HSCR and 151 controls of Han Chinese origin. We found statistically significant differences between HSCR and control groups at 5 genetic variants. For each gene, the haplotypes combining all polymorphisms were the most significant. Based on SNPsyn, MDR and GeneMANIA analyses, we observed significant gene-gene interactions among GAL, GAP43, NRSN1 and our previous identified RELN, GABRG2 and PTCH1. Our study for the first time indicates that genetic variants within GAL, GAP43 and NRSN1 and related gene-gene interaction networks might be involved in the altered susceptibility to HSCR in the Han Chinese population, which might shed more light on HSCR pathogenesis.
