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

introductionThe study of polymorphisms and their relationship with diseases is very important for risk assessment. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between early risk of coronary artery disease(CAD) with renin-angiotensin(RAS) genes and endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS) in a sample of the Iranian population. METHODS & MATERIALS: In this cross-sectional study, 63 patients with premature CAD and 72 healthy samples were enrolled. Polymorphism of the promotor region of eNOS- and ACE-I/D (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme-I/D) polymorphism was evaluated. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test and PCR-RFLP (Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) was performed for ACE and eNOS-786 gene, respectively.

resultsThe frequency of deletion(D) for the ACE gene was significantly higher in patients(96% versus 61%; P < 0.001). Conversely, the number of defective C alleles for the eNOS gene was similar in both groups (p > 0.9).

conclusionACE polymorphism seems to be an independent risk factor for premature CAD.
