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

objectiveTo investigate the association between the rs3844492/ARHGAP22 and rs741301/ELMO1 polymorphisms and diabetic kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

methodsThe sample consisted of 740 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and diabetic kidney disease (cases) and 303 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but no diabetic kidney disease (controls). The genotyping of the polymorphisms was conducted using real-time polymerase chain reaction with Taqman probes.

resultsThe frequency of the rs3844492/ARHGAP22 G/G genotype was 16.8% in the control group and 15.7% in cases (p = 0.069). After adjusting for covariables, the presence of the G allele was associated with risk for diabetic kidney disease (OR = 1.435, 95% CI 1.023 - 2.011; p = 0.036), as well as with a decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate (p = 0.012) and elevated creatinine levels (p = 0.009). No difference was observed in the rs741301/ELMO1 genotype frequencies between groups (p = 0.800). However, the presence of the C allele appears to be associated with higher creatinine levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (p = 0.064).

conclusionThe rs3844492/ARHGAP22 and rs741301/ELMO1 polymorphisms are associated with alterations in renal function markers among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
