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

Many studies have investigated the association between the CYP2E1 5'-flanking region (RsaI/PstI) polymorphism and head and neck cancer susceptibility, but the results were conflicting. In this meta-analysis, we assessed 24 published studies involving 12,562 subjects of the association between CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI polymorphism and head and neck cancer risk. Using the fixed effects model, we found significant association between PstI/RsaI polymorphism and head and neck cancer risk [OR=1.11 (95%CI: 1.00-1.22) for c2 allele (P=0.04) and OR=1.57 (95% CI: 1.14-2.15) for c2 homozygous (P=0.006) compared with wild type homozygote]. Significant results were also found in East Asians and Mix populations when stratified by ethnicity. However, no significant associations were found for Caucasians in all genetic models. Stratified analyses according to source of controls, significant associations were found only in hospital base controls. In the subgroup analyses by tumor types, significant association was detected only in oral cancer group, while no significant associations among laryngeal- or pharyngeal- cancer subgroup. This meta-analysis suggests that the CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI polymorphism may be a risk factor for head and neck cancer in Asians and Mix population, and that different carcinogenic processes involved in the genesis of various tumor types may exist.
