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

purposeUlcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory condition of the large bowel of unknown etiology, characterized by the presence of bloody diarrhea and mucus associated with a negative stool culture for bacteria, ova, or parasites. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of p53 codon 72 genetic polymorphism with the risk of UC in northern Iran.

methodsWe evaluated the association of the p53 codon 72 genetic polymorphism with UC in northern Iran. The genotype of 190 patients with UC (115 men, 75 women; mean age, 32 ± 8.6 years) and 220 healthy control subjects (123 men, 97 women; mean age, 33 ± 2.5 years) were compared. Genomic DNA was extracted from colonic bioptic tissues of patients and blood samples of healthy individuals. Genotypes and allele frequencies were determined in patients and controls using allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR).

resultsThere were significant differences in the distribution of the polymorphism between the control subjects and the UC patients (P < 0.0001). Significantly increased frequencies of the Pro allele and the Pro/Pro genotype were observed in patients with UC compared with controls (Pro allele: P < 0.0001; odds ratio, 7.87; 95% confidence interval, 4.03-15.35; Pro/Pro: P < 0.0001; odds ratio, 35.21; 95% confidence interval, 12.56-98.73).

conclusionThe p53 codon 72 genetic polymorphism is associated with UC in northern Iran.
