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

backgroundCYP2C19 loss-of-function single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with poor responses of clopidogrel in secondary prevention of ischemic stroke (IS). It is still unclear whether these SNPs, which may result in poor cytochrome P450 2C19 (CYP2C19) enzymatic activity, affect the occurrence of IS and its subtypes. The present study evaluated the relationship between the CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles and IS.

methodsEight hundred sixty-eight patients with IS and 557 nonstroke (NS) control individuals were prospectively recruited. Stroke etiologies, including large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA), cardioembolism (CE), and small-vessel occlusion (SVO), were determined. The two most common CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles worldwide, CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*3, were investigated by genotyping. Patients with two loss-of-function alleles of the CYP2C19 genes were classified as poor metabolizers.

resultsOur population has a high frequency of CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles, mostly contributed by CYP2C19*2, being present in 51.3% to 57.5% of patients with IS of different etiologies and 53.1% of NS individuals. The proportions of CYP2C19 poor metabolizers within NS group and each IS group with disparate etiology are similar (NS 73 [13.1%]; LAA 44 [14.2%], p = 0.623; CE 26 [14.0%], p = 0.541; SVO 38 [13.3%], p = 0.443). Nevertheless, the frequencies of CYP2C19*3 allele were different among the NS and different IS subgroups. Multivariate analyses adjusting for age, sex, and vascular risk factors revealed that CYP2C19*3 allele was a protective factor for SVO (odds ratio [OR] = 0.5, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.3 to 0.9, p = 0.015 [vs NS], OR = 0.5, 95% CI = 0.3 to 0.8, p = 0.010 [vs LAA and CE]).

conclusionThe CYP2C19 poor metabolizer is not associated with IS and its subtypes. Furthermore, CYP2C19*3 may be a protective factor for SVO and its mechanism warrants further investigation.
