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

introductionAsian Indians have a propensity for premature, severe, and diffuse coronary artery disease (CAD). Several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the 'core CAD' region of the chromosomal region 9p21.3 are known to be strongly associated with CAD.

objectivesWe aimed to study SNPs in the 9p21.3 region associated with CAD and premature CAD and identify their association with demographic and clinical characteristics in an Asian Indian population.

methodsSNP genotyping was performed for 30 SNPs of the 9p21.3 region using MassARRAY

resultsOur results suggest that females are at a higher risk of premature CAD. We found that SNPs rs1333045 (CC), rs16905599 (AA), rs2383206 (GG), rs2383208 (AG), and rs4977574 (GG) were significantly associated with premature CAD. When adjusted for covariates/confounders, we found that rs2383206 showed the strongest risk association with CAD followed by rs16905599 and rs2383208. Further, SNPs rs1333049 (CC) and rs4977574 (GG) were found to be exclusively associated with premature CAD cases, suggesting their potential as genetic markers for premature CAD in the local population. Upon gender-based stratification, it was found that rs10757272 (TT and TC) is significantly associated with eightfold to ninefold CAD risk specifically among females. SNP rs7865618 (GG) is significantly associated with more than 2.5-fold CAD risk specifically among males.

conclusionOur study suggests that SNPs at the 9p21 risk locus may be used to generate a reliable genetic risk score along with markers at other loci.
