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

The cytochrome P450 family (CYPs) and the glutathione S-transferase (GSTs) enzymes play an important role in the metabolism of environmental carcinogens and of oestrogen and can affect breast cancer risk. In this study we examine the role of the genes CYP1A1, CYP17, CYP2D6, GSTM1, GSTP1 and GSTT1 in breast cancer risk in Brazilian women. The study population consisted of 102 incident breast cancer cases and 102 healthy controls. Genotyping analyses were performed by PCR-based methods. A significant finding was observed between GSTP1 Ile-Val polymorphism and breast cancer risk (OR = 1.81; CI 95% = 1.04-3.16). A significant association was observed between women with 0-2 risk genotypes and those with 4 or more risk genotypes (OR = 2.42; CI 95% = 1.13-5.18) when the potential combined effects of the risk genotypes were examined. No significant differences between cases and controls were found correlating the genotypes and the clinical-histopathological parameters. In conclusion, in our population only GSTP1 was associated with breast cancer risk. However, when the genes were tested in combination, a significant association in the breast cancer risk was observed.
