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

purposeGenetic factors in type 2 diabetes (T2D) pathogenesis have been widely explored by the genome-wide association studies (GWAS), identifying a great amount of susceptibility loci. With the development of high-resolution sequencing, the N(6)-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA modification has been proved to be affected by genetic variation. In this study, we identified the T2D-associated m6A-SNPs from T2D GWAS data and explored the underlying mechanism of the pathogenesis of T2D.

methodsWe examined the association of m6A-SNPs with T2D among large-scale T2D GWAS summary statistics and further performed multi-omics integrated analysis to explore the potential role of the identified m6A-SNPs in T2D pathogenesis.

resultsAmong the 15,124 T2D-associated m6A-SNPs, 71 of them reach the genome-wide significant threshold (5.0e-05). The leading SNP rs4993986 (C>G), which is located near the m6A modification site at the 3' end of the

conclusionThe current study has suggested a potential correlation between m6A-SNPs and T2D pathogenesis and also provided new insights into the pathogenic mechanism of the T2D susceptibility loci identified by GWAS.
