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

backgroundThe association of vitamin D level and vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms with the prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) has been evaluated in various studies; however, the reported results were inconsistent. Hence, we aimed to investigate the impact of two VDR gene polymorphisms, TaqI (rs731236) and BsmI (rs1544410), on the incidence and severity of CAD in Iranian population.

methodsBlood samples were collected from 118 CAD patients underwent elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and 52 control subjects. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was performed for genotyping. SYTNAX score (SS) was calculated as a grading tool for complexity of CAD by an interventional cardiologist.

resultsTaqI polymorphism of VDR was not associated with the incidence of CAD. A significant difference was observed between CAD patients and controls regarding BsmI polymorphism of VDR (p < 0.001). GA and AA genotypes was significantly associated with a decreased risk of CAD (p = 0.01, p-adjusted = 0.01 and p < 0.001, p-adjusted = 0.001 respectively). A allele of BsmI polymorphism was shown to have a protective effect against CAD (p < 0.001, p-adjusted = 0.002). No association was found between TaqI and BsmI polymorphisms of VDR and SS as a measure of CAD severity.

conclusionAssociation of BsmI genotypes with the incidence of CAD revealed that the genetic variation of VDR might play a role in the pathogenesis of CAD.
