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

objectiveThe etiology of polycystic ovary syndrome is still clearly unknown. Research results indicate that polycystic ovary syndrome may be a multifactorial disease whose inheritance pattern is potentially autosomal dominant. INSR gene polymorphisms are frequently seen among polycystic ovary syndrome patients who also have insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate associations between INSR gene polymorphisms rs2059806 and rs2252673 with polycystic ovary syndrome.

methodsA total of 48 polycystic ovary syndrome and 50 control subjects were recruited in this case-control study. A real-time polymerase chain reaction method (particularly the cycle threshold method) was used for polymorphism genotyping. Genotype and allele frequencies as well as the effects of the genotypes on having polycystic ovary syndrome were evaluated by appropriate statistical methods. Also, differences between genotypes in terms of clinical characteristics were tested.

resultsThere was no difference in genotype and allele frequencies between the polycystic ovary syndrome and control groups when calculated under both additive and dominant models (p>0.05). The polycystic ovary syndrome group showed significantly higher mean testosterone levels (p<0.001) and significantly lower estradiol (p=0.006), follicle-stimulating hormone (p=0.021), and progesterone (p<0.001) levels compared to controls. The GG genotype (polymorphic) of the rs2252673 polymorphism in the polycystic ovary syndrome group showed significantly higher mean testosterone and progesterone levels compared to both GC and CC genotypes (p=0.004 and p=0.019, respectively).

conclusionBeing the first of its kind that investigates associations between polycystic ovary syndrome and INSR gene rs2059806 and rs2252673 polymorphisms in a population from Turkey, the present study detected no association.
