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 present study was done to determine the modulation effect(s) of polymorphisms of XRCC1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 on concentration of serum testosterone in females exposed to natural sour gas. Also we examine whether chronic exposure to natural gas containing sulfur compounds act as natural selection force on XRCC1 polymorphisms. The present study was performed on 68 healthy unrelated female students living in polluted areas of MIS. Also for investigating the effect of natural selection on XRCC1 polymorphism, a study was performed on two groups of healthy individuals of MIS citizens. The first and second groups including 94 (age range 30-85 years) and 187 individuals (age range 5-20 years), respectively. First and second groups were born and were not born in contaminated areas of the MIS, respectively. There was no significant difference between genotypes of XRCC1 for concentration of serum testosterone. Although GSTT1-null genotype had higher level of serum testosterone in comparison with the present genotype (t=2.392, df=66, P=0.023), a borderline difference between genotypes of GSTM1 for serum testosterone was observed (t=1.928, df=66, P=0.058). Analysis of variance revealed significant difference between combination genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 for serum testosterone (F=4.167; df=3, 64; P=0.009). The Duncan post hoc test indicated that the combination genotype of "present GSTM1/null GSTT1" had significant higher level of testosterone. There is no evidence that XRCC1 polymorphisms have advantage/disadvantage when population exposed to natural sour gas. The polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 modulate serum testosterone concentration in young females exposed to natural sour gas.
