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

Our previous study showed that A2 allele of dopamine D2 (DRD2) TaqI A polymorphism related to smoking habits, which was opposed to the results of studies for Caucasians. In order to confirm our finding, a similar study was conducted for the first-visit outpatients of Aichi Cancer Center Hospital, who participated in HERPACC-II (Hospital-based Epidemiologic Research Program at Aichi Cancer Center-II). Among consecutive 1,577 first-visit patients between November 2000 and February 2001, 800 patients provided a 7 ml of peripheral blood. Smoking habit data were available for 798 participants. Excluding five participants aged < 20 years or > 80 years, the remaining 793 participants (346 males and 447 females) were analyzed. The DRD2 genotype was determined by a new method, polymerase chain reaction with confronting two-pair primers (PCR-CTPP). In males, current smokers were 35.3% of individuals with A1A1 genotype, 43.1% of individuals with A1A2 genotype, and 57.0% of individuals with A2A2 genotype, while in females, they were 19.6%, 14.6%, and 10.9%, respectively. Age-adjusted odds ratio (OR) of current smoking relative to A1A1 was 1.61 (95% confidence interval, 0.71-3.46) for A1A2 and 2.32 (1.02-5.29) for A2A2 in males, and 0.72 (0.32-1.61) and 0.51 (0.22-1.18) in females, respectively. The present study indicated that Japanese males with A2A2 genotype have a higher risk of being current smokers. No association for Japanese females suggested that female smoking behavior is differently affected in biological and/or psychological manner.
