Pharmacogenetics of warfarin dosing in Chinese adults with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.
Article in European journal of clinical pharmacology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundThe guide for the use of genotype-guided warfarin dosing in patients for the treatment of non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) is still lacking.
aimWe aimed to evaluate whether genotype-guided warfarin dosing is superior to conventional clinical dosing for the outcomes of interest in Chinese patients.
methodOur study consisted of 508 newly recruited and 471 existing Chinese AF patients. Among the total 979 patients, 585 patients received their dose of warfarin determined by a genetic and clinical factor (gene group), while the remaining 394 patients whose dosing was determined empirically in control group. We incorporated CYP2C9 and VKORC1 genotypes into the gene group. The international normalized ratio (INR) measurement and standard protocols were used for further dose adjustment in both groups. The primary outcomes were the percentage of time in the therapeutic range (%TTR) and INR during 12-month follow-up. Secondary safety outcome included bleeding and thrombotic events.
resultsCompared with the control group, the average TTR of the gene group was higher [68.4 ± 20.6% vs 48.5 ± 21.6%, P < 0.001]. The average INR monitoring times to reach the therapeutic time in the gene group was lower (P < 0.001). The risk ratios (RR) for cumulative incidence of total bleeding events, minor bleeding events, gastrointestinal bleeding, and intracerebral bleeding events were not significantly different between the two groups (P > 0.05). Comparing to the analysis using existing 471 patients, the analysis using total 979 patients showed that the gene group experienced a lower (RR 0.4 (95% CI 0.2 to 0.8), P = 0.008) incidence of cumulative ischemic stroke.
conclusionGenotype-guided warfarin administration increases the average TTR, reaches higher TTR levels in the early anticoagulant phase, and significantly reduces the risk of ischemic stroke events.
