Genetic variations in estrogen and progesterone pathway genes in preeclampsia patients and controls in Bavaria.

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.
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
purposeHypertensive pregnancy disorders and preeclampsia are major causes of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality worldwide. Many different organs are involved in the diseases' clinical phenotype. The underlying mechanism is still unknown, with a possible genetic component. This case-control study investigated effects on the risk of preeclampsia of genetic variations (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) in the estrogen and progesterone pathway genes.
methodsThe study included 167 patients with preeclampsia and 115 healthy controls from the "Franconian Maternal Health Evaluation Studies" (FRAMES). All patients completed an epidemiological questionnaire, data from which were correlated with prospective data on pregnancy and labor. DNA was isolated from blood samples and genotyping was done by PCR. Variants in the aromatase gene CYP19A1 (rs10046, rs4646), progesterone receptor gene (rs1042838, rs10895068), and estrogen receptor-α gene (rs488133) were examined, and the genotype distribution in the two groups was analyzed statistically.
resultsA significant difference in the distribution frequency of genotypes between preeclampsia patients and controls was identified in one of the five SNPs. For rs10895068 in the progesterone receptor gene, genotype G/A was significantly more frequent among cases than controls (P = 0.023). No significant differences between the two cohorts were found in the other SNPs.
conclusionsThis study showed a significant association between only one SNP in the progesterone receptor and preeclampsia. Other studies have also noted genetic aspects of preeclampsia. The underlying mechanism and causal relationship are not yet known, and further research is needed to explain the extent of genetic variations and the causal relationship in preeclampsia.
