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

To contribute to the analysis of the genetic background of atherosclerosis, especially endothelial dysfunction, we searched for DNA polymorphisms in the genes encoding E-, P-, and L-selectin, and ICAM-I and VCAM-I. We detected 17 mutations by single-strand conformation polymorphisms analysis and direct sequencing. Five of them resulted in an amino acid substitution. In E-selectin, exchanges from serine to arginine (position 128), from leucine to phenylalanine (position 554), and a DNA mutation from guanine to thymine (position 98) present significantly different allele frequencies in young patients with angiographically established, severe atherosclerosis, compared with an unselected population. Results suggest that these polymorphisms are associated with a higher risk for early severe atherosclerosis.
