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

backgroundDysregulated expression of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) TUG1 participates in the etiopathogenesis of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). This study analyzed the genetic association of the TUG1 rs5749201 polymorphism in PCOS patients.

methodsGenotype and allele distributions of rs5749201 were analyzed in 210 PCOS patients and 230 healthy volunteers. Serum TUG1 levels were detected via qRT-PCR. The relationship between gene polymorphism and PCOS risk was analyzed via multivariate logistic regression.

resultsCompared with the control group, the PCOS group had a significantly higher proportion of carriers with TUG1 rs5749201 AA genotype and a lower proportion of TT genotype carriers. Rs5749201 TT genotype carriers had notably reduced PCOS risk. This genetic association was also found in dominant and recessive models, with the locus independently linked to PCOS (OR = 0.427, 95%CI: 0.242-0.753; P = 0.003). AA genotype carriers had higher LDL, TG and FBS than AT/TT genotype carriers. PCOS patients had elevated TUG1 levels, with AA genotype carriers showing the highest.

conclusionTUG1 rs5749201 was linked to PCOS susceptibility, which is correlated with its regulatory role in TUG1 expression.
