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 common functional CYP2E1 Rsa I/Pst I polymorphism may influence the risk of esophageal cancer. However, the published results are conflicting. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis comprised of 11 published case-control studies with 1,088 cases and 2,238 controls. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the association. Overall, the pooled ORs were 0.53 (95% CI = 0.31-0.89, P (heterogeneity) < 0.001) and 0.57 (95% CI = 0.34-0.96, P (heterogeneity) < 0.001), for the heterogeneity c1/c2 and c2 allele carriers (c1/c2 + c2/c2) compared with the homozygous c1/c2, respectively. In subgroup analysis by race, the same significant risks were found among Asians (for c2 vs. c1: OR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.43-0.95, P (heterogeneity) < 0.001; for c1/c2 vs. c1/c1: OR = 0.48, 95% CI = 0.28-0.82, P (heterogeneity) < 0.001; for c1/c2 + c2/c2 vs. c1/c1: OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.30-0.86, P (heterogeneity) < 0.001). In conclusion, our meta-analysis demonstrates that CYP2E1 Rsa I/Pst I c2 allele may be a decreased risk factor for developing esophageal cancer among Asians populations.
