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

backgroundExtensive investigation of the NF-κB1 -94ins/delATTG promoter polymorphism for risk association with ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) risk has yielded conflicting results.

aimsThe objective of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the risk association between the NF-κB1 -94ins/delATTG promoter polymorphism and UC and CD.

methodsAll eligible case-control studies of the association of NF-κB1 -94ins/delATTG promoter polymorphism with UC and CD were identified in the Pubmed and Embase databases. From these data, odds ratios (OR) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Meta-analysis was performed for alleles (D vs. W) and genotypes (DD + WD vs. WW, DD vs. WW + WD, DD vs. WW, WD vs. WW) in a fixed/random effects model.

resultsNine case-control studies that included 4,447 cases (2,631 UC and 1,816 CD) and 2,195 controls were identified. Results indicated increased risk association of D allele carriers with UC (D vs. W: OR = 1.08, 95 % CI = 1.01-1.17, P = 0.03; DD vs. WW + WD: OR = 1.16, 95 % CI = 1.01-1.32, P = 0.04 and DD vs. WW: OR = 1.20, 95 % CI = 1.03-1.39, P = 0.02). No risk association was identified with CD.

conclusionThis meta-analysis indicated that the NF-κB1 -94ins/delATTG promoter polymorphism is a risk factor for UC but not CD.
