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

Several studies have shown an association between some variants in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) and the GC vitamin D binding protein (GC) genes with the risk for Parkinson's disease or other neurological disorders. VDR rs2228570 has shown an association with essential tremor (ET) in a previous study. The aim of this study is to look for the association between several common variants in these genes and the risk for ET. We genotyped 272 patients diagnosed with familial ET and 272 age-matched controls using specific TaqMan assays for VDR rs2228570, VDR rs731236, VDR rs7975232, VDR rs739837, VDR rs78783628, GC rs7041, and GC rs4588 single nucleotide variants (SNVs). We found an association between GC rs7041 SNV and ET using recessive, codominant, and allelic models. Despite our results did not find an association between VDR rs2228570 and ET, the pooled data with those by a previous report suggest this association under recessive, codominant, and allelic models. None of the SNVs studied was related to the age at onset of tremor in ET patients. Data from the current study suggest an association between GC rs7041 and VDR rs2228570 SNVs and ET risk.
