Paraoxonase gene polymorphisms: Understanding the biochemical and genetic basis of coronary artery disease.

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
Objectives: Serum paraoxonase (PON) is a glycoprotein with antioxidant and anti-atherosclerotic activities. The Q192R and L55M gene polymorphisms of PON have been implicated as risk factors for coronary artery disease (CAD) but have not been extensively explored in South Indians. We aimed to assess the Q192R and L55M genetic polymorphisms of the PON1 gene in participants with CAD, including genotypes and allele frequencies for PON1 gene polymorphism. Methods: This prospective case-control study involved 20 participants in each group. Patients with angiographically demonstrated CAD were included in the case group. PON1 activity was measured, and PON gene polymorphism was determined. Serum PON was quantitatively analyzed with a RayBio® Human PON1 ELISA kit. Chi square tests were used to assess the association of the genotypes with sex and any comorbidities in cases and controls. A Results: Mutant type L55M polymorphism was observed in 50% of patients, whereas wild type Q192R polymorphism was observed in 42.5% of the participants. The mean PON values between groups did not significantly differ, whereas PON U/L was significantly (p = 0.001) lower in the case group. The L55M polymorphism did not significantly differ between the case and the control groups (p = 0.213), whereas the Q192R polymorphism was statistically significant in cases compared with controls (p ≤ 0.001). Conclusion: Low plasma PON1 and HDL levels, and higher LDL, total cholesterol and triglyceride levels were observed in patients with CAD. More patients with CAD than healthy individuals had Q192R polymorphism.
