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 association of the two ERCC polymorphisms, Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln, with lung cancer risk remains controversial and inconclusive. To better evaluate the potential role of the two polymorphisms and interaction with tobacco smoking in lung cancer susceptibility presented in diverse populations, we have conducted a meta-analysis based on 26 studies from 24 publications which included analyses of Asp312Asn (7121 cases, 8962 controls) and Lys751Gln (8396 cases, 10510 controls) polymorphisms. Overall, significantly elevated lung cancer risk was associated with ERCC2 312Asn allele(homozygous model: OR=1.20[1.05-1.36], P=0.006; recessive model: OR=1.20[1.06-1.35], P=0.004) and 751Gln allele(homozygous model: OR=1.31[1.17-1.46], P<0.00001; heterozygous model: OR=1.11[1.04-1.19], P=0.003; recessive model: OR=1.23[1.11-1.37], P<0.0001; dominant model: OR=1.15[1.08-1.23], P<0.0001). In ethnic subgroup analyses, significantly increased risk was associated with ERCC2 312Asn allele for both Caucasians and Asians, and 751Gln allele for both Caucasians and Latino-Americans. When stratified by smoking status, significantly elevated risk of both polymorphisms for never-smokers was detected (dominant model, OR=1.46[1.09-1.95] and 1.57[1.19-2.08], P=0.01 and 0.002, respectively). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the two ERCC2 polymorphisms may contribute to lung cancer susceptibility serving as low-penetrance risk factors. Extremely large-scale evidence would be necessary to confirm the effects on ethnically specific populations and gene-environment interactions.
