The Influence of Tissue Plasminogen Activator I/D Polymorphism on the tPA Response to Exercise.

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
The purpose was to determine if the Alu-insertion (I)/deletion (D) polymorphism of the tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) gene influences the tPA response to maximal exercise. Fifty male subjects (age = 23.6 ± 4.7 yrs) completed a maximal treadmill exercise test. Blood samples were drawn before and immediately after exercise for determination of plasma tPA antigen and activity. Isolated DNA was amplified via polymerase chain reaction, electrophoresed, and visually amplified to determine tPA genotype. Subjects were classified as possessing the D allele (D) (n = 28) or being homozygous for the I allele (I) (n = 22). Differences in tPA antigen and activity were assessed using a two-factor (genotype and time) repeated measures analysis of variance. There were significant main effects for time for tPA antigen and activity (p < 0.05), but no main effect for genotype. Furthermore, there was no genotype x time interaction due to a similar increase in tPA antigen in the D group (pre-exercise = 5.83 + 2.39 ng/ml, post-exercise = 21.88 + 7.38 ng/ml) and the I group (pre-exercise = 5.61 + 2.82 ng/ml, post-exercise = 19.05 + 7.67 ng/ml) and a similar increase in tPA activity in the D group (pre-exercise = 0.39 ± 0.19 IU/ml, post-exercise = 9.73 ± 4.22 IU/ml) and I group (pre-exercise = 0.45 ± 0.29 IU/ml, post-exercise = 9.76 ± 5.50 IU/ml). The I/D polymorphism of the tPA gene does not influence the tPA antigen nor tPA activity responses to maximal exercise in healthy, young, sedentary males.
