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

backgroundGouty arthritis is a metabolic disease characterized by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals in the joints, which triggers the release of interleukin-1β (IL-β) by activating the NLRP3 inflammasome. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is a transcription factor involved in IL-β production and as a regulator of NLRP3.

objectivesThe aims were to analyze the association of HIF1A rs11549465, rs11549467, and rs2057482 variants in patients with gouty arthritis, and to evaluate the correlation between urate and HIF-1α levels according to the associated genotypes.

methodsCases and controls were genotyped using TaqMan probes, and urate and HIF-1α levels were quantified. Data were analyzed using SPSS v21 software and P-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.

resultsUrate and HIF-1α levels were higher in patients than in controls (P < 0.05). Under the three inheritance models (codominant, dominant, and recessive), the AA genotype of the rs11549467 variant was associated with gout risk (OR = 5.74, P = 0.009, OR = 3.33, P = 0.024, and OR = 9.09, P = 0.003, respectively). There were significant differences in the distribution of serum levels of both HIF-1α (P < 0.0001) and urate (P = 0.016) according to the genotypes of the rs11549467 variant.

conclusionThese results suggest that the HIF1A rs11549467 variant may play a key role in the pathogenesis of gouty arthritis. Key Points • The pathogenesis of gouty arthritis involves the HIF1A gene. • In patients with gout, the AA genotype of the rs11549467 (HIF1A) variant is associated with increased serum levels of urate and HIF-1α. • HIF-1α is involved in the regulation of IL-1β and NLRP3.
