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

purposeHuman papillomavirus (HPV) infection is considered the major cause of cervical cancer (CC), but a number of infected women do not develop invasive lesions, suggesting the role of genetic susceptibility and environmental co-factors for cancer outbreak. The aim of this study was to investigate whether some GST polymorphisms could influence the risk to develop CC, either by themselves or in combination with smoking habit, in a cohort of high-risk HPV (HR-HPV) infected Italian women.

methodsThe study population comprises 192 Italian women including 81 HR-HPV infected women bearing cervical lesions and 111 healthy controls. The cases include: 26 low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (LSILs), 30 high-grade-SIL, and 25 CCs, while controls were all negative for HPV. DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples or cytobrush and individuals were genotyped for GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 polymorphisms using PCR and PCR/RFLP techniques.

resultsOn studying the association of GSTs gene polymorphisms with cervical cancer lesions, the combination of GSTM1 null, GSTT1 null and GSTP1 AA genotypes, independently on smoking habit, seems to be related to a 5.7-fold increased risk of developing CLs with a considerable statistical significance (P = 0.0091).

conclusionsWe suggest that the investigation of multiple gene polymorphisms, versus single genes, could contribute to a better understanding of the effect of susceptibility genes on cancer risk.
