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

purposeLong-term human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is a prerequisite for cervical cancer. IL-1beta and IL-1Ra expression levels play an important role in cervical carcinogenesis. Several functional genetic variants in IL1B and IL-RN have been reported to be associated with IL-1beta expression and cancer susceptibility. In the current study, we hypothesized that plasma IL-1beta levels, IL-1B and IL-RN polymorphisms were candidate biomarkers for cervical cancer.

methodsWe measured plasma IL-1beta levels and genotyped IL-1B and IL-RN polymorphisms in a case-control study of 404 cervical cancer cases and 404 controls in Chinese women.

resultsThe mean plasma IL-1beta levels in cervical cancer cases (42.19 +/- 31.55 pg/ml) was significantly higher than those in controls (34.86 +/- 22.68 pg/ml, P = 0.0002), and plasma IL-1beta levels above the 75% quartiles in controls (IL-1beta > or = 46.94 pg/ml) were associated with a 1.74-fold significantly increased risk of cervical cancer [95% confidence interval (CI), 1.28-2.36], compared with those of lowest quartile. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that the variant genotypes, IL-1B T-31C TC/CC and C-511T CT/TT, were associated with a significantly increased risk of cervical cancer [adjusted odds ratio (OR), 1.60; 95% CI, 1.16-2.21 for -31TC/CC, and adjusted OR, 1.52; 95% CI, 1.10-2.09 for -511CT/TT, respectively), especially among subjects having higher levels of IL-1beta. However, IL-RN VNTR polymorphism was not associated with cervical cancer risk in the current study. Furthermore, the significant differences of IL-1beta concentration between cervical cancer cases and controls were observed only among subjects carrying T-31C or C-511T variant genotypes.

conclusionFunctional IL-1B genotypes may modify plasma IL-1beta concentrations to contribute to the etiology of cervical cancer in Chinese women; however, further perspective studies are warranted to test the causal effects of IL-1beta concentration in cervical carcinogenesis.
