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

backgroundWe have previously shown that the effect of a high-density lipoprotein (HDL) genetic risk score depends on whether the phenotype (HDL cholesterol) is high or low relative to its distribution (quantile-dependent expressivity).

objectiveEvidence for quantile-dependent expressivity was sought using a more inclusive genetic measure (quantile-specific heritability, h

methodsQuantile regression was used to test whether the offspring-parent (β

resultsHDL cholesterol heritability estimated from β

conclusionHDL cholesterol heritability increased with increasing percentile of the offspring's HDL distribution. Whereas precision medicine is based on the premise that genetic markers identify patients most likely to benefit from drugs and diet, quantile-dependent expressivity postulates that the strong signals from these genetic markers simply trace the heritability increase with increasing plasma HDL concentrations. Thus, quantile-dependent expressivity provides an alternative interpretation to these genotype-specific effects.
