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

backgroundTo investigate the relationship between unexplained indirect hyperbilirubinemia of Vietnamese newborns and the polymorphism of the promoter TATA box and exon 1 of bilirubin uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT1A1) gene.

methodsA total of 149 neonates were divided into the hyperbilirubinemia group (n = 99) and control group (n = 50). The gene polymorphisms of UGT1A1 gene in the two groups were detected by PCR and direct sequencing, which revealed the relationship between UGT1A1 polymorphism with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia of neonates. The types of UGT1A1 polymorphism in the hyperbilirubinemia group and the peak total serum bilirubin (PSB) levels with different genotypes were observed.

results(1) (TA)7 insertion mutation, 211G>A, 189C>T, 190G>A, 378C>T and 686C>A were detected. (2) The allele frequency of 211G>A allele mutation was significantly different between the two groups (p < 0.05). (3) Logistic regression analysis showed that homozygosity and heterozygosity of 211G>A were both significantly associated with neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. (4) In the hyperbilirubinemia group, the peak total serum bilirubin level of 211G>A homozygous neonates was higher than that of the wild-type neonates (p < 0.05).

conclusionsWe noted that there was an association between neonates with unexplained indirect hyperbilirubinemia in Vietnam and the polymorphism of UGT1A1c.211G>A. In addition, the homozygous 211G>A polymorphism was related to the degree of hyperbilirubinemia. IMPACT: Our article provided data on UGT1A1 polymorphism distribution in the Vietnamese population, which have not been reported yet. Our findings revealed that mutations in UGT1A1 gene are risk factors for unexplained hyperbilirubinemia in Vietnamese neonates. Our article will strengthen the cognition of neonatal jaundice at the genetic level in the pediatric field in Vietnam.
