Population-specific genetic background for the OPRM1 variant rs1799971 (118A>G): implications for genomic medicine and functional analysis.
Article in Molecular psychiatry, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The mu-opioid receptor (MOR, OPRM1) has important roles in diverse functions including reward, addiction, and response to pain treatment. SNP rs1799971 (118A > G, N40D) which occur at a high frequency (40-60%) in Asia and moderate frequency (15%) in samples of European ancestry, is the only common coding variant in the canonical transcript, in non-African populations. Despite extensive studies, the molecular consequences of this variation remained unresolved. The aim of this study was to determine the genetic background of the OPRM1 region of 118G in four representative populations and to assess its potential modulatory effect. Seven common haplotypes with distinct population distribution were identified based on seven SNPs. Three haplotypes carry the 118G and additional highly linked regulatory SNPs (e.g., rs9383689) that could modulate the effect of 118G. Extended analysis in the 1000 Genomes database (n = 2504) revealed a common East Asian-specific haplotype with a different genetic background in which there are no variant alleles for an upstream LD block tagged by the eQTL rs9397171. The major European haplotype specifically includes the eQTL intronic SNP rs62436463 that must have arisen after the split between European and Asian populations. Differentiating between the effect of 118G and these SNPs requires specific experimental approaches. The analysis also revealed a significant increase in two 118A haplotypes with eQTL SNPs associated with drug addiction (rs510769) and obesity (rs9478496) in populations with native Mexican ancestry. Future studies are required to assess the clinical implication of these findings.
