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

objectiveWe investigated the association of vitamin D receptor polymorphisms and colorectal cancer incidence in a Caucasian population.

methodsFrequencies of the vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms 23005G>A (CDX-2), 27823C>T (FokI), 60890G>A (BsmI), 61050G>A (Tru9I), 61888G>T (ApaI), and 61968T>C (TaqI) were determined in a series of 256 colorectal cancer patients and 256 patients without malignant disease (case-control study) using polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism genotyping assays (PCR-RFLP). Haplotype analysis based on the six genetic loci was applied to the received genotypes.

resultsPairwise linkage disequilibrium between BsmI, ApaI, TaqI, and Tru9I was confirmed (P < 0.001). Allele frequencies did not differ between the groups. There was no association between any single variant and colorectal cancer. However, haplotypes BsmI(G)#TaqI(C) and BsmI(A)#TaqI(T) were inversely associated with colorectal cancer incidence (P < 0.001), the odds being 15.0 times smaller [odds ratio (OR) 0.067; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.016-0.284] and 5.3 times smaller (OR 0.188; 95% CI 0.077-0.461), respectively, compared with noncarriers.

conclusionOur findings suggest that vitamin D receptor haplotypes BsmI(G)#TaqI(C) and BsmI(A)#TaqI(T) have a protective effect against colorectal cancer in Caucasians.
