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

aimTo access the association of forty-eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) identified from Caucasian population with steroid-induced ocular hypertension (OHT) in India population.

methodsFifty-four triamcinolone-acetonide (TA) and forty-seven dexamethasone (Dex) administered subjects were enrolled in the study after a written consent. Intraocular pressure (IOP) values were recorded for a period of 6-month post steroid injections and patients were grouped as steroid-responders (SR: IOP≥21 mm Hg) and non-responders (NR: IOP≤20 mm Hg). Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral venous blood. Forty-eight SNPs identified in TA treated Caucasian patients by genome wide association study (GWAS) were genotyped using iPLEX™ MassARRAY among TA as well as Dex administered Indian patients. Genotyping data of 48 general subjects from a previous study were considered as reference controls for statistical analysis. Genotypic frequencies were calculated and

resultsOHT was observed in 50% of TA and 26% of Dex administered patients, respectively. IOP rise was mostly severe (>30 mm Hg) and immediate (<1wk) among TA-SR patients while it was noticed to be mild (<30 mm Hg) and between 1-2mo among Dex-SR patients. Logistic regression for risk factor correlation with OHT remained non-significant, hence these factors were not considered as confounding parameters for further analysis. rs133, rs34016742, rs274554, rs10936746, rs274547, rs804854, rs7751500, rs359498, and rs7547448 SNPs significantly varied even after Bonferroni corrections (

conclusionPrevalence of OHT in study population is observed to be similar to other studies both in TA and Dex treated patients. We can correlate rs34016742 involved in diabetes signaling pathway to the occurrence of ocular edematous and inflammatory conditions. Except rs133 that is involved in neuro-degeneration and myopia occurrence, none of the other SNPs identified in Caucasian population possess any correlation with OHT incidence in TA and Dex administered Indian subjects.
