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

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is a leading cause of death worldwide. Recent genome-wide association studies have identified more than one hundred susceptibility loci associated with CAD. However, the underlying mechanism of these genetic loci to CAD susceptibility is still largely unknown. We performed a tissue-specific network analysis of CAD using the summary statistics from one of the largest genome-wide association studies. Variant-level associations were summarized into gene-level associations, and a CAD-related interaction network was built using experimentally validated gene interactions and gene coexpression in coronary artery. The network contained 102 genes, of which 53 were significantly associated with CAD. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed that many genes in the network were involved in the regulation of peripheral arteries. In summary, we performed a tissue-specific network analysis and found abnormalities in the peripheral arteries might be an important pathway underlying the pathogenesis of CAD. Future functional characterization might further validate our findings and identify potential therapeutic targets for CAD.
