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

objectiveTo evaluate the relationship between common genetic variation in genes involved in the biosynthesis and signaling of estrogen and progesterone and endometriosis risk.

designGenetic polymorphism analysis.

settingPopulation-based case-control study conducted in Group Health Cooperative enrollees in western Washington. PATIENT(S): Women with newly diagnosed, surgically confirmed endometriosis between 1996 and 2001 (n = 256) and age- and reference year-matched female control subjects without a history of endometriosis (n = 567). INTERVENTIONS(S): None. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): We evaluated the relationship between common genetic variation and endometriosis risk, using gene-based tests and single-variant analysis of genetic polymorphisms in ESR1, ESR2, PGR, CYP17A1, CYP19A1, HSD17B1, HSD17B2, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, COMT, and GSTM1. RESULT(S): The most consistent gene-based association with endometriosis risk was for CYP19A1. We did not find evidence for consistent significant associations between previously reported candidate SNPs in sex hormone-related genes and endometriosis risk. CONCLUSION(S): In summary, we report increased endometriosis risk with CYP19A1 gene-based tests; replication of the association between endometriosis and this gene or gene region is necessary in a larger study population.
