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

objectiveThis study investigated whether changes in DNA methylation (DNAm) at TXNIP are associated with glycemic changes and whether such an association differs with early-life adiposity changes.

methodsA total of 594 Bogalusa Heart Study participants who had blood DNAm measurements at two time points in midlife were included. Of them, 353 participants had at least four BMI measurements during childhood and adolescence. The incremental area under the curve was calculated as a measure of long-term trends of BMI during childhood and adolescence.

resultsIncrease in DNAm at TXNIP was significantly associated with decrease in fasting plasma glucose (FPG) independent of covariates (p < 0.001). The study found that the strength of this relationship was significantly modified by a trend of increasing BMI during childhood and adolescence (p-interaction = 0.003). Each 1% increase in DNAm at TXNIP was associated with a 2.90- (0.77) mg/dL decrease in FPG among participants with the highest tertile of BMI incremental area under the curve and a 0.96- (0.38) mg/dL decrease among those with the middle tertile, whereas no association was observed among participants with the lowest tertile.

conclusionsThese results indicate that changes in blood DNAm at TXNIP are significantly associated with changes in FPG in midlife, and this association was modified by BMI trends during childhood and adolescence.
