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

Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) is known to be involved in the pathogenesis of glioma. It damages the extra-cellular matrix to produce invasiveness in cancer tissue, and hence has a direct effect in cancer invasion. The study aims to explore the association of single nucleotide polymorphism of -1607 MMP-1 gene with susceptibility to glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) in northern Indian subjects. One hundred and ten GBM patients and 150 healthy controls were included in this study. 1607 MMP-1 gene was studied by PCR-RFLP; different genotypes being combinations of 1G and 2G allele (1G/1G, 1G/2G and 2G/2G). 2G/2G genotype was significantly associated with GBM patients (OR, 2.24; P = 0.016; 95% CI, 1.16-4.30) as compared to controls. Prevalence of the 2G allele of -1607 MMP-1 polymorphism was significantly greater in GBM patients as compared to controls (62.3 vs 48.3%, OR, 1.76; P = 0.002; 95% CI, 1.23-2.52). This study suggests that the 2G/2G genotype and 2G allele of -1607 MMP-1 polymorphism are associated with an increased susceptibility for developing GBM.
