Genome Wide Association Study of Neuropathic Ocular Pain.
Article in Ophthalmology science. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Purpose: To conduct a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of individuals with neuropathic ocular pain (NOP) symptoms to identify genomic variants that may predispose to NOP development. Design: Prospective study of individuals with NOP. Participants: Three hundred twenty-nine patients recruited from the Miami Veterans Affairs eye clinic. Methods: The Neuropathic Pain Symptom Inventory modified for the eye (NPSI-Eye) was completed to calculate a NPSI-Eye-Sub-Score (summed ratings of burning and wind sensitivity) as an indicator of NOP severity. A GWAS was performed for the NPSI-Eye-Sub-Score with a significance threshold of Main Outcome Measures: Identification of SNPs and protein products that may be associated with the development of NOP. Results: One hundred seventy-one SNPs reached a threshold of Conclusions: Our GWAS revealed genes with protein products that may impact sensory perception, lending biological plausibility to a role for SNPs identified by our GWAS in the development of NOP. A better understanding of the biological relevance of these genes and pathways in the pathophysiology associated with NOP may facilitate future novel mechanism-based treatments.
