Non-diabetic end-stage renal disease in Saudis associated with polymorphism of MYH9 gene but not UMOD gene.

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.
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
The prevalence of risk factors of chronic kidney disease in Saudi Arabia has augmented an already serious public health problem, therefore, determination of genetic variants associated with the risk of the disease presents potential screening tools that help reducing the incidence rates and promote effective disease management.The aim of the present study is to determine the association of UMOD and MYH9 genetic variants with the risk of non-diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in the Saudi population.Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), rs12917707 in gene UMOD and rs4821480 in gene MYH9 were genotyped in 154 non-diabetic ESRD Saudi patients and 123 age-matched healthy controls using Primers and Polymerase chain reaction conditions (PCR), Sanger sequencing, and TaqMan Pre-designed SNP Genotyping Assay. The association of these genetic variants with the risk of the disease and other renal function determinants was assessed using statistical tools such as logistic regression and One-way Analysis of Variance tests.The genotypic frequency of the two SNPs showed no deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the minor allele frequency of UMOD SNP was 0.13 and MYH9 SNP was 0.08. rs4821480 in MYH9 was significantly associated with the risk of non-diabetic ESRD (OR = 3.86; 95%CI: 1.38-10.82, P value .010), while, rs12917707 showed lack of significant association with the disease, P value .380. and neither of the 2 SNPs showed any association with the renal function determinants, serum albumin, and alkaline phosphatase enzyme.
