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

BACKGROUND/

aimC-Reactive protein (CRP) is a common marker of inflammation. Elevated CRP levels have been associated with increased risk of development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to evaluate the association of CRP gene polymorphisms with early-onset T2DM and the effect of genetic variants on CRP level. MATERIALS AND

methodsIn total, 948 individuals with early-onset (n=271) or late-onset (n=677) T2DM were enrolled in the study. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CRP gene, namely rs3093077, rs2808630, rs1800947, rs11265263, and rs11265265, were selected for genotyping, and CRP levels were measured.

resultsGenotypic, allelic, and haplotype frequencies of these five SNPs were not significantly different between patients with early- and those with late-onset. T2DM Higher serum CRP levels were independently associated with the C-allele of rs3093077 and T-allele of rs11265265 (p<0.001). Furthermore, the C-allele of rs3093077 was associated with higher CRP level in both early- (p=0.016) and late-onset (p<0.001) T2DM.

conclusionCRP gene variants may contribute to the risk of early-onset T2DM by affecting the serum CRP level.
