Association of genetic polymorphism of PC-1 gene (rs1044498 Lys121Gln) with insulin-resistant type 2 diabetes mellitus in Punjabi Population of Pakistan.
Article in Molecular genetics & genomic medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
backgroundInsulin resistance (IR), known to reduce the response to insulin action, develops with obesity leading to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The PC-1 gene has been associated with dyslipidemia, polycystic ovarian disease and T2DM in different regions of the world. The objective of the present study was to investigate the genetic association of PC-1 rs1044498 polymorphism with insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes in the Punjabi population of Pakistan.
methodsThis study was carried out on 161 healthy controls and 161 patients of T2DM with insulin resistance. Whole blood was collected for DNA extraction and molecular studies. PCR-RFLP with AvaII was performed to determine the genotype in cases and controls. Chi-square and Hardy Weinberg analyses were carried out. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS software.
resultsThe demographic data of cases and controls showed significant differences for different parameters like glucose, insulin, Homeostatic model assessment-insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) and lipid profiles (p < 0.000). Different statistical models revealed that all the dominant models were found associated in between alleles for disease risk (p < 0.001) while no association of PC-1 rs1044498 (K121Q) polymorphism was found with insulin-resistant parameters in T2DM cases.
conclusionOverall, the results indicate that the K121Q polymorphism was not found associated with insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes in a Pakistani Punjabi population. This is the first-ever report about the genotype of PC-1 gene in this population.
