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

objectivesType 2 diabetes is associated with increased pancreatic cancer risk; however, the nature of this relationship is not clear. We examined the link between 10 diabetes-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms and pancreatic cancer in a case-control study conducted in 1994 to 1998.

methodsCases (n = 162) were ascertained from hospitals in the Twin Cities and Mayo Clinic, Minn. Controls (n = 540) from the general population were frequency matched by age, sex, and race. Unconditional logistic regression provided odds ratios of pancreatic cancer and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs).

resultsIn a multivariate-adjusted model, a significant association was observed only for rs780094 in the glucokinase regulator (GCKR) gene: odds ratios for pancreatic cancer were 1.00 for TT, 1.35 (95% CI, 0.71-2.58) for CT, and 2.14 (95% CI, 1.12-4.08) for CC genotypes (P trend = 0.01) and did not change after the adjustment for diabetes.

conclusionsThis study provides the first evidence that GCKR rs780094, a single-nucleotide polymorphism related to diabetes, may be associated with pancreatic cancer risk. Although the results from this analysis are preliminary, there is a biologic plausibility for such an association.
