Associations of TF Gene Polymorphisms with the Risk of Ischemic Stroke.

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.
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
Ischemic stroke (IS) is the main cause of mortality and disability in China; thus, this study aimed to examine the association between six variants and their haplotypes within the transferrin (TF) gene and the risk of IS in the Southern Chinese Han population. Genotyping was performed using the Sequenom MassARRAY platform for 249 IS patients and 249 age- and sex-matched controls. The association between polymorphisms and IS risk was tested by Chi squared test and haplotype and stratification analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) and confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated by unconditional logistic regression analysis. The results of genetic model analyses indicated that the two SNPs (rs1880669 and rs2692695) were associated with decreased IS risk under the co-dominant, dominant, and additive models. Additionally, rs4525863 was also associated with decreased IS risk both under the dominant and additive models in males. Moreover, the CG haplotype of TF (rs1880669 and rs2692695) was significantly associated with a decreased risk of IS in the total population and males. Our findings suggested that polymorphisms (rs4525863, rs1880669, and rs2692695) of the TF gene might be a protective factor for IS in Southern Chinese Han population. Further large prospective studies are required to confirm these findings.
