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

Gout is a metabolic disorder and one of the most common arthritic conditions. Hyperuricemia is the hallmark of developing gout and mostly caused by uric acid underexcretion. Gout disproportionately affects people of specific races and ethnicities. Filipinos are the second-largest Asian population in the USA and reported to have a higher prevalence of gout and hyperuricemia than non-Filipino counterparts and Filipinos residing in the Philippines. The genetic polymorphism rs2231142 G>T in the ABCG2 has been strongly associated with hyperuricemia and gout across multiple populations. However, the prevalence of this variant in Filipinos is unknown. Therefore, assessing the prevalence of this variant may provide insights on the high prevalence of hyperuricemia and gout in Filipinos. A total of 190 DNA samples from pregnant females who self-identified as a Filipino from the Hawaii Biorepository Bank were genotyped for rs2231142 G>T in the ABCG2. The prevalence of the gout risk allele (T) (46%) was significantly higher in Filipinos than in samples of Caucasians (12%, p < 0.001), Han Chinese (29%, p = 0.014), and African Americans (3%, p < 0.001). Similarly, the prevalence of the gout-risk genotype (TT) (21%) was significantly higher in Filipinos than in samples of Caucasians (1%, p < 0.001), Han Chinese (9%, p = 0.002), and African Americans (0.1%, p < 0.001). Though there were no gout cases in this cohort, these findings are suggestive of a genetic basis to the high prevalence of hyperuricemia and gout in Filipinos. This might also explain the reported reduced urinary uric acid excretion in Filipinos compared with Caucasians. Key Points • The Filipinos have the highest prevalence of the gout-associated risk allele (T) of the rs2231142 G>T in ABCG2. • The high prevalence of the risk allele (T) of the rs2231142 G>T in ABCG2 may partly explain the reduced urinary urate excretion and early-onset gout in Filipinos. • The high prevalence of the risk allele (T) of the rs2231142 G > T in ABCG2 may predispose Filipinos to hyperuricemia and gout when acculturated to high-purine diet.
