MTHFR C677T, hyperhomocysteinemia, and their interactions with traditional risk factors in early neurological deterioration in Chinese patients with ischemic stroke.

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
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the relationship between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T polymorphism and early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and any possible interactions between specific MTHFR alleles and traditional risk factors among a Han Chinese cohort. Methods: 434 AIS patients were consecutively recruited between January 2017 and June 2019, including 129 END and 305 non-END cases. A candidate gene association study design was used to analyze the association between MTHFR gene polymorphism and END risk. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method was employed to genotype the MTHFR C677T polymorphism. The interactional analyses were performed using the multifactor dimensionality reduction test. Results: Hyperglycemia (odds ratio [OR]: 2.410, 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.436-4.046, p = 0.001), neurological function impairment (NIHSS score >5) (OR: 2.158, 95%CI: 1.337-3.484, Conclusions: Our results show a possible association between MTHFR C677T polymorphism and gene-environment interactions with END susceptibility in a Han Chinese cohort.
