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

Receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is a cell-surface molecule member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and thought to play a critical role in diabetic atherosclerosis. A growing body of studies has been conducted to determine the extent to which the variants of RAGE gene influence the risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, these have reported conflicting results. To investigate this inconsistency, we performed a comprehensive meta-analysis on the associations between the RAGE -374T/A, -429T/C, and Gly82Ser polymorphisms and the risk of CAD. A total of 4,402 cases and 6,081 controls from 17 published case-control studies were included. The overall odds ratio (OR) of CAD was 0.99 (95 % CI 0.87-1.13), 1.06 (95 % CI 0.95-1.18) and 1.12 (95 % CI 0.90-1.39) for -374A, -429C, and the minor S allele of the Gly82Ser polymorphism, respectively. Similarly, no significant results were observed for these polymorphisms using dominant model. However, when stratified by diabetic/non-diabetic status of the CAD patients, we found significant association among Caucasian type two diabetic CAD patients with the -374A allele [OR 1.39, 95 % CI 1.10-1.76, P(Z) = 0.006], while no association was detected between the -374T/A polymorphism and non-diabetic CAD in Caucasians [OR 0.79, 95 % CI 0.58-1.07, P(Z) = 0.13]. In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggested that possession of the -374A allele may be a risk factor in CAD among Caucasian patients with type two diabetes.
