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

aimIt has recently been reported that the sterol regulatory element-binding transcription factors (SREBF-1c, and -2) contribute to the variation in the plasma lipids levels, which have an important role in the atherosclerotic plaque development. The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether the SREBF1c and SREBF2 gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with plasma lipids levels and ACS susceptibility in a case-control association study. MATERIAL AND

methodsA case-control study was carried out in 625 patients with ACS (82% men and 18% women, with a mean age of 57.97 ± 10.5 years) and 700 healthy controls (66% men and 34% women, with a mean age of 54.37 ± 7.65 years). The sample size was calculated for a statistical power of 80%. We genotyped three SREBF1c (rs2297508, rs11656665 and rs11868035) and three SREBF2 (rs2267439, rs2267443, and rs2228314) gene polymorphisms by 5' exonuclease TaqMan assays. The associations were evaluated by logistic regression under the co-dominant, dominant, recessive, over-dominant and additive inheritance models. The contribution of the genotypes on the plasma lipids levels was evaluated by Student's t-test.

resultsUnder different models, the SREBF1c rs2297508 (OR = 1.50, pCRes = 0.03), SREBF1c rs11656665 (OR = 1.35, pCDom = 0.02 and OR = 1.26, pCAdd = 0.02) and SREBF2 rs2228314 (OR = 1.78, pCRes = 0.03, OR = 1.27, pCAdd = 0.04) SNPs were associated with higher risk of ACS. On the other hand, the SREBF1c rs11868035 SNP was associated with lower risk of ACS (OR = 0.49, pCCo-dom = 0.001, OR = 0.66, pCDom = 0.003, OR = 0.57, PRes = 0.003 and OR = 0.71, pCAdd = 0.001). There was a statistically significant association of both SREBF1c rs11656665 and rs11868035 polymorphisms with plasma triglyceride levels.

conclusionsIn summary, our data suggest the association of the SREBF1c and SREBF2 SNPs with risk of developing ACS and with triglyceride levels in a Mexican population.
