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

We investigated glutathione S-transferase (GST) P1 Ile (105) Val, T1, and M1 polymorphisms in 45 patients with documented cryptogenic cirrhosis and 56 healthy control subjects. Polymerase chain reaction-based procedures were performed in the studied populations to confirm the genotypes of GSTT1, M1, and P1. Ile/Val and Val/Val GSTP1 genotypes were more frequent in the patients with cirrhosis (n=39, 87%) than in the control subjects (n=10; 18%) (odds ratio [OR] 34.04; 95% confidence interval [CI] 10.70 to 108.31, P<0.001). Among these patients with cirrhosis, 16 were heterozygous and 23 were homozygous, whereas only one person in the control group was homozygous. The GSTM1 null genotype was also more prevalent in cirrhotic patients than in healthy control subjects (OR 6.83, 95% CI 2.53 to 18.42, P<0.001). The rate of GSTT1 deletion did not show a significant difference between the two groups (OR 2.35, 95% CI 0.76 to 7.28, P=0.111). To our knowledge, this is the first evidence that GSTP1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms may be related to the development of cirrhosis by unknown mechanisms. The significant association of cryptogenic cirrhosis with Val/Val GSTP1 genotype encoding a low detoxification activity protein implicates this polymorphism as a risk factor for the occurrence of the disease.
