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

backgroundDiffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. A number of studies have examined the role of genetic polymorphisms in the risk of DLBCL, and several variants have been identified as potential susceptibility genes, of those glutathione-S-transferases T1 and M1 (GSTT1 and GSTM1). AIM OF THE WORK: The aim of the current study was to investigate the influence of inherited genetic polymorphisms of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes on the susceptibility to DLBCL in Egypt.

methodsGenotyping of the candidate genes was performed for 71 Egyptian DLBCL patients and 100 age- and gender-matched healthy controls by multiplex polymerase chain reaction technique.

resultsThe frequencies of GSTT1 null, GSTM1 null, and dual null genotypes among DLBCL patients were 47.9, 52.1, and 23.9 % respectively.

conclusionGSTT1 null genotype conferred almost fourfold increased risk of DLBCL (OR = 3.9, 95 % CI = 1.97-7.75), and the risk increased when confined to male patients (OR = 4.4, 95 % CI = 1.57-12.63), while GSTM1 null genotype was not associated with DLBCL risk. Further studies on the functional consequences of GSTT1 and GSTM1 genetic polymorphisms would pave the way to declare their role in the pathogenesis of DLBCL or as possible predictors for response to therapy.
