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

Cytokines participate in tumorigenesis of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in cytokine genes influence expression of proteins and are evaluated in cancer susceptibility. The aim of this study was to evaluate IL-2 -330 T/G SNP and susceptibility to GEP-NETs, and analyze the correlation between G-allele and IL-2 serum values in GEP-NET patients. Moreover we assessed the value of IL-2 as a tumor serum marker. IL-2 -330 T/G SNP was examined in 101 patients and 150 healthy volunteers and IL-2 serum levels in patients and 20 controls. Patients' IL-2 serum levels were compared to IL-2 -330 T/G genotypes and tumor functional status and finally with known markers such as chromogranin A (CgA) and 5-hydroxyindolacetic acid (5-HIAA). There was a significant difference in genotype distribution of the IL-2 -330 polymorphisms between GEP-NET and control group (p = 0.0006) as well as in the frequency of G-allele (p = 0.010). G-allele correlated with higher IL-2 serum levels (p = 0.028) and elevated in all patients, being highest in patients with functional tumors (p = 0.039). Compared to CgA and 5-HIAA, IL-2 was more specific in detecting GEP-NET patients (p < 0.0001 and p < 0.0001, respectively). Our results indicate importance of IL-2 in GEP-NET development and biochemical diagnosis.
