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

8p22-23-rs2254546 was firstly discovered to be associated with Kawasaki disease (KD) susceptibility by a genome-wide association study. However, only one Chinese replication study has been performed so far. To verify this association in another Chinese population, a hospital-based case-control study in Zhejiang province was conducted followed by an integrated meta-analysis, comprising five case-control studies of 1958 cases, 5615 controls and four transmission disequilibrium tests of 503 trios. In our case-control study, significant associations were observed between GG genotype or GG/GA genotypes of rs2254546 and increased KD risk (OR = 1.86, 95% CI = 1.01-3.41, P = 0.045; OR = 1.83, 95% CI = 1.01-3.33, P = 0.048), compared with AA genotype; however, no significant association was found in allelic model (OR = 1.20, 95% CI = 0.96-1.50, P = 0.117). The meta-analysis further revealed that the G allele was significantly associated with the increased KD risk without evidence of heterogeneity (OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.42-1.70, P < 0.001). In conclusion, rs2254546 polymorphism might significantly contribute to the risk of KD.
