Article in Tumour biology : the journal of the International Society for Oncodevelopmental Biology and Medicine, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Previous studies evaluating the association between excision repair cross-complimentary group 2 (ERCC2) Lys751Gln polymorphism and susceptibility to cutaneous melanoma reported conflicting findings. We searched PubMed and Wangfang Medical databases up to October 16, 2012 to identify eligible studies. A total of 8 case-control studies including 3,492 cases and 5,381 controls were included in the meta-analysis. Statistical analysis was performed with Review Manage version 5.1. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (95 %CIs) were used to assess the strength of the association. There was no obvious between-study heterogeneity among those eight studies under all four comparison models. Overall, there was a significant association between ERCC2 Lys751Gln polymorphism and susceptibility to cutaneous melanoma under three genetic models (for Gln versus Lys: OR = 1.08, 95 % CI = 1.01-1.15, P = 0.02; for GlnGln versus LysLys: OR = 1.16, 95 % CI = 1.01-1.33, P = 0.03; for GlnGln/LysGln versus LysLys: OR = 1.10, 95 % CI = 1.01-1.21, P = 0.04). Sensitivity analysis by omitting one study a time showed the significance of the pooled ORs was stable under all those three genetic models above. Therefore, the meta-analysis suggests that there is a significant association between ERCC2 Lys751Gln polymorphism and susceptibility to cutaneous melanoma.
