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

Background: Cardiovascular disease remains a major public health burden. This study aimed to investigate the effect of the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T genotype on folic acid treatment response and cardiovascular endothelial function in patients with hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy). Methods: We retrospectively enrolled 344 patients with HHcy genotyped for MTHFR C677T (CC, Results: After treatment, the Hcy concentration and pulse wave velocity decreased over time in all genotype groups, whereas the ankle-brachial index increased. Significant main effects of time were observed for Hcy concentration ( Conclusion: MTHFR C677T polymorphism significantly affects folic acid efficacy and endothelial improvement. Patients with the TT genotype had lower therapeutic efficacy of folic acid therapy. Genotyping may help estimate treatment responses and support individualized follow-up.
