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

Excision repair cross‑complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group 5 (ERCC5, XPG) is a key molecule in DNA damage repair. We analyzed the contribution of ERCC5 rs751402 polymorphism in increased susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). A total of 96 patients diagnosed with HCC and 336 healthy controls provided blood samples for analysis of rs751402 genotypes. Demographic data and information on habitual use of tobacco and alcohol were collected. After adjusting for covariates, rs751402 homozygocity for allele C was found to confer a statistically significant protection [adjusted odds ratio (AOR)=0.56; 95% CI, 0.35‑0.89; p=0.01] against HCC, whereas rs751402 T alleles were associated with increased risk (AOR=1.69; 95% CI, 0.74‑3.87). Individuals with the inherited ERCC rs751402 CC genotype may experience significant protection against HCC, whereas individuals with T alleles appear to be exposed to higher risk.
