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

purposeStudies investigating the association between interleukin10 (IL10) -592 promoter polymorphism and gastric cancer risk report conflicting results. The objective of this study was to quantitatively summarize the evidence for such a relationship.

methodsTwo investigators independently searched the MEDLINE and Embase databases. This meta-analysis included ten case-control studies, which included 1,715 gastric cancer cases and 2,783 controls.

resultsThe combined results based on all studies showed that there was no significant difference in genotype distribution (AA odds ratio [OR] = 0.88, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.66, 1.18; AC OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.95, 1.24; CC OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 0.89, 1.18) between gastric cancer and noncancer patients. When stratifying for race, the results were similar, except that patients with gastric cancer had a significantly lower frequency of AA (OR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.52, 0.87) and a higher frequency of AC (OR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.07, 1.68) than noncancer patients among Asians. When stratifying by the location of gastric cancer, we found that patients with cardia gastric cancer had a significantly lower frequency of AA (OR = 0.41, 95% CI = 0.20, 0.84) than those with noncardia gastric cancer among Caucasians. When stratifying by Lauren's classification of gastric cancer, we found that patients with diffuse gastric cancer had a significantly higher frequency of AA (OR = 1.91, 95% CI = 1.07, 3.41) than those with intestinal gastric cancer among Caucasians.

conclusionsThis meta-analysis suggests that the IL10 -592 promoter polymorphism may be associated with gastric cancer among Asians, and that differences in genotype distribution may be associated with the location and Lauren's classification of gastric cancer.
