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

backgroundChronic kidney Failure (CKD), particularly End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD), may be serious ill-health related to a high death rate. Uremic syndrome leads to increased oxidative stress, inflammation, and dyslipidemia. Our study aimed at identifying the association of NOS3 (rs 2070744) and SOD2 Val16Ala (rs4880) gene polymorphisms within ESRD Egyptian patients.

methodsThis work was conducted on 100 ESRD and 16 CKD Egyptian patients who were compared to 100 healthy controls. DNA was genotyped for these variants using the (T-ARMS-PCR) technique.

resultsESRD patients showed a significant association of the genotype of NOS3 gene polymorphism compared with healthy controls (P = 0.032). In the contrast, the present study revealed that no statistically significant differences were found among the CKD, ESRD, and control groups as regards the SOD2 genotypes (P = 0.064).

conclusionsOur findings indicated a significant association between NOS3 (rs 2070744) gene polymorphism and increased risk of ESRD and CKD among Egyptian patients.
