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

BACKGROUND AND

aimsThe high mortality rate of pancreatic cancer is a bottleneck for further treatment with long-term efficacy. Thus, it is urgent to identify new methods to accurately predict the early onset of pancreatic cancer. We hypothesized that the different genotypes of cationic trypsinogen (PRSS1) gene could confer susceptibility and/or resistance to pancreatic cancer in the Han Chinese population.

methodsThe genotypes of PRSS1 were determined in 154 patients with pancreatic cancer and in a control group of 520 healthy individuals of Han Chinese descent. Clinical information was obtained, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the PRSS1 gene were analyzed by direct sequencing, and the distribution of the genotypes were tested for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. Odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated by logistic regression analysis to estimate the associations between the different genotypes or haplotypes and the risk of pancreatic cancer.

resultsThree SNPs (-409 C/T, -204 A/C, and c.486 C/T) were identified. A case-control analysis revealed a 0.118-fold (95% CI: 0.037-0.653), 0.842-fold (95% CI: 0.177-4.010), and 0.750-fold (95% CI: 0.519-1.085) change in risk of developing pancreatic cancer for individuals harboring these SNPs, respectively. The individuals with the -409 C/T genotype tended to have a reduced risk compared to those who carried the -409 T/T genotype. A protective effect was observed for the C(-409)-A(-204)-C(486) haplotype compared to the T(-409)-A(-204)-T(486) haplotype (OR = 0.115, 95% CI: 0.016-0.849) or compared to the T(-409)-A(-204)-C(486) haplotype (OR = 0.090, 95% CI: 0.012-0.667). Serum levels of trypsin in patients with the -409 C/T genotype were only one-fourth that of those with the -409 T/T genotype and only one-third that of the healthy controls.

conclusionsThe -409 C/T genotype of PRSS1 was revealed to be a protective factor against pancreatic cancer in the Han Chinese population.
