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

To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between the xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) Asp312Asn polymorphism and lung cancer risk, a meta-analysis was performed. PubMed, Medline, Embase, and Web of Science were searched. Crude ORs with 95% CIs were used to assess the strength of association between the XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism and lung cancer risk. The pooled ORs were performed with co-dominant model (Asp/Asn vs. Asp/Asp, Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp), dominant model (Asp/Asn + Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp), and recessive model (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp+Asp/Asn), respectively. A total of 18 studies including 7,552 cases and 9,397 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. Overall, significantly elevated lung cancer risk was associated with XPD Asn allele when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=1.158, 95% CI=1.018-1.317; recessive model: OR=1.161, 95% CI=1.029-1.311). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased risks were found for both Caucasians (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=1.164, 95% CI=1.003-1.351; recessive model: OR=1.169, 95% CI=1.016-1.345) and Asians (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=8.056, 95% CI=2.420-26.817; recessive model: OR=7.956, 95% CI=2.391-26.477). When stratified by study design, statistically significantly elevated risk was noted in hospital-based studies (Asn/Asn vs. Asp/Asp: OR=1.315, 95% CI=1.110-1.558; recessive model: OR=1.290, 95% CI=1.099-1.513). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the XPD Asn allele is a low-penetrant risk factor for developing lung cancer.
