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

Introduction: Genome-wide association studies have discovered common polymorphisms in regions associated with schizophrenia. No genome-wide analyses have been performed in Saudi schizophrenia subjects. Methods: Genome-wide genotyping data from 136 Saudi schizophrenia cases and 97 Saudi controls in addition to 4,625 American were examined for copy number variants (CNVs). A hidden Markov model approach was used to call CNVs. Results: CNVs in schizophrenia cases were twice as large on average than CNVs in controls ( Discussion: Runs of homozygosity (ROHs) were analyzed across the genome to investigate correlation with schizophrenia risk. While rates and sizes of these ROHs were similar in cases and controls, we identified 10 regions where multiple cases had ROHs and controls did not.
