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

objectiveGenetic polymorphisms of CYP2C9 and VKORC1 play major role in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of warfarin, respectively. Purpose of our study was to assess the utility of pretesting patients for the above mutations in predicting tendency for bleeding and achieving target INR.

methodsThis was an audit of data collected between July 2011 and December 2016. For safety and efficacy, patients were divided into two subgroups: those with or without bleeding and those who achieved target INR or not. Chi square test was applied to compare the between group differences and crude Odds Ratio (cOR) calculated.

resultsAmong 521 patients evaluated, most common indication for warfarin therapy was valvular heart disease (210/521 = 40%); 36% (187/521) had at least one bleeding episode; 56% (269/479) had below target INR. 26% (136/521) had polymorphic alleles of CYP2C9 and 69% (358/521) had the GG haplotype of VKORC1. Polymorphic alleles of CYP2C9 or AG/AA haplotype had twice the odds of bleeding (cOR = 2.14 and 2.44 respectively) relative to those with wild CYP2C9 allele or GG haplotype. Combined CYP2C9 mutant alleles and/or AG/AA haplotypes had thrice the odds of bleeding (cOR = 3.12) relative to those with wild CYP2C9 alleles and GG haplotype. Those with GG haplotype had twice the odds (cOR = 1.81) and those with GG haplotype along with wild CYP2C9 allele had four times the odds (cOR = 4.27) of not achieving the target INR relative to those with other haplotype/alleles. All these associations were statistically significant (p < 0.05).

conclusionsPretesting patients for genetic polymorphisms could aid in individualizing warfarin therapy.
