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

Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and coronary syndromes; moreover, various lines of evidence suggest that genetic factors do contribute to the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). The proinflammatory cytokine IL-6 is a central mediator of inflammation associated with CAD. The present study is aimed to investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphism in the promoter region of the IL-6 gene (-174 G > C) and methylation with the susceptibility of CAD. Genotyping of IL-6 -174 G/C polymorphism was performed by PCR-RFLP. Methylation-specific PCR method was used to study the IL-6 gene promoter methylation. Analysis of 470 subjects (265 CAD patients and 205 controls) showed association of the -174 G/C variant with the CAD risk in dominant model (OR 1.58, 95% CI, 1.024-2.23,
