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

objectivesCentral retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is a severe eye disease that impairs vision. Although numerous systemic conditions have been reported to be a contributor, its exact pathophysiology has not yet been resolved. The purpose of this study was to study the role of some common thrombophilic polymorphisms in CRVO patients.

methodsA total of 33 CRVO patients (25 non-ischemic CRVO and 8 ischemic CRVO) and 30 controls were recruited. Factor V Leiden (G1691A), prothrombin (Factor II G20210A), MTHFR (C677T), MTHFR (A1298C), and PAI-1 5G/4G polymorphisms in venous blood DNA samples were examined, as well as the presence of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, glaucoma, smoking, and history of thrombosis.

resultsIt was determined that MTHFR C677T polymorphisms, either in heterozygous or homozygous form, might be a risk factor for CRVO and systemic thrombosis. No differences were detected between the CRVO and control groups in terms of diabetes mellitus (p=0.058>0.05), hypertension (p=0.3>0.05), smoking (p=0.923>0.05), glaucoma (p=0.06>0.05) or use of anticoagulant drugs (p=0.4>0.05). Analysis of patient history revealed a statistically significant difference regarding a thrombotic event in the medical history of the CRVO group (p=0.001<0.05; n=4) versus the control group. The ischemic CRVO group had a significantly higher incidence of diabetes mellitus (p=0.002<0.05) and hypertension (p=0.031<0.05) than the non-ischemic CRVO group.

conclusionThe MTHFR C677T mutation appears to be a risk factor for CRVO but factor V Leiden (G1691A), prothrombin (Factor II G20210A), MTHFR (A1298C), and PAI-1 5G/4G mutations were not determined to be specifically related to CRVO in this study. The presence of diabetes mellitus and hypertension was significant in the ischemic CRVO group. Further studies with larger sample sizes should be conducted.
