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

backgroundAtrial fibrillation (AF) is one of the common arrhythmia in clinics. Its incidence is high among the elderly. This study aimed to identify a possible connection between ion channel-related gene polymorphisms and the risk of AF.

methodsA total of 381 patients with coronary heart disease were recruited. Based on complete cardiac examination, the patients were divided into two subgroups: 185 patients with AF and 196 patients without AF. An association analysis was performed using 13 genotyped SNPs. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated by conditional logistic regression.

resultsIn our research, we found that KCNE2 rs8134775 was associated with a decreased AF risk in the allele model (OR = 0.70; 95% CI: 0.50-0.97; p = 0.034). Genetic model analysis shown that the minor allele T of GJA5 rs35594137 was associated with a decreased AF risk under the recessive model (OR = 0.40; 95% CI: 0.19-0.86; p = 0.018) and the minor allele G of KCNJ2 rs8079702 was associated with an increased AF risk in the recessive model (OR = 2.31; 95% CI: 1.20-4.42; p = 0.012).

conclusionsOur results suggest that KCNE2, KCNJ2, and GJA5 influence the development of AF.
