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

backgroundAlthough previous studies have demonstrated an association between ABO blood group and the risk of gastric cancer (GC), only one study has identified these associations using the ABO genotype; however, that study did not evaluate sex differences in this association. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether there are sex-specific differences in the ABO genotype-associated risk of GC. In addition, we explored the association of the ABO genotype and the clinicopathologic characteristics of GC in a Korean population.

methodsWe conducted a large-scale case-control study of 3245 GC patients (2204 males, 1041 females) and 1700 controls (821 males, 879 females). The ABO genotype was determined by multicolor real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using displacing probes.

resultsAs compared with genotype OO, genotypes AA and AO in females, but not in males, were associated with a significantly increased risk of GC (odds ratio [OR] 1.56 and 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.08-2.26 for AA; OR 1.57 and 95 % CI 1.21-2.03 for AO). In a subgroup analysis, blood group A had a significantly increased risk of diffuse-type GC (OR 2.00, 95 % CI 1.43-2.78), but not of intestinal-type (OR 1.31, 95 % CI 0.96-1.79) or mixed-type GC (OR 1.43, 95 % CI 0.92-2.24).

conclusionThe ABO genotypes AA and AO were significantly associated with GC only in females and only for diffuse-type GC. These data suggest that the association between ABO blood group and GC risk may differ according to sex and histological type.
