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

Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene (MTHFR), transcobalaminII (TCN2) and ring finger protein 213 (RNF213) are related to homocysteine (Hcy) level and are of great significance for hypertension. We aimed to evaluate the associations of MTHFR (rs1801133, rs1801131, rs9651118), TCN2 (rs117353193) and RNF213 (rs9916351) with hypertension and blood pressure (BP). A total of 953 patients with hypertension and 1103 controls were enrolled. Genotyping was performed by Taqman. Logistic regression analysis indicated that A allele of TCN2 rs117353193 under the dominant model had a significantly protective effect (P=0.045) after adjustment, which showed that AA+GA genotype has a lower risk than GG. Additionally, the average diastolic BP (DBP) (P=0.044) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) (P=0.035) levels were significantly different between genotypes of RNF213 rs9916351. Further pairwise comparison showed that the average systolic BP (SBP) level of the TT genotype carriers were significantly higher than in CC (P=0.024), and the average DBP and MAP levels of the TT genotype carriers were higher than in CT (P=0.044, P=0.012, respectively) and CC (P=0.048, P=0.010, respectively). In the recessive model, the average SBP (P=0.043), DBP (P=0.018) and MAP (P=0.017) levels with the TT genotype carriers were significantly higher than in CT+CC. Multiple linear regression analysis suggested that RNF213 rs9916351 in the recessive model had significant effects on SBP (P=0.025), DBP (P=0.017) and MAP (P=0.010) as a risk factor. However, no associations were observed between MTHFR and hypertension. TCN2 rs117353193 might serve as a protective factor in hypertension, and RNF213 rs9916351 might be a risk factor that is linked to increase BP level in Northeast Chinese population.
