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

backgroundProhibitin 3' untranslated region 1630 C>T (rs6917) polymorphism creates a variant T allele that lacks the antiproliferative activity of the more common functional C allele. Previous studies indicate that women carrying the prohibitin T allele have an increased susceptibility to breast cancer. However, the role of 1630 C>T polymorphism in mRNA expression of prohibitin and its contribution to carcinogenesis in the breast remains controversial.

methodsUsing mRNA expression data from the HapMap online database, we sought an association between prohibitin 1630 C>T polymorphism and its mRNA expression, then conducted a meta-analysis of prohibitin 1630 C>T polymorphism and risk of breast cancer.

resultsAlthough no significant association was found between prohibitin 1630 C>T polymorphism and mRNA expression in lymphoblastoid cell lines from the HapMap database (P trend = 0.543), the present meta-analysis involving 5072 cases and 4796 controls demonstrated that prohibitin 1630 C>T polymorphism was significantly correlated with breast cancer risk in allele contrast model T versus C (odds ratio [OR] 1.09, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.01-1.18), the homozygote codominant model TT versus CC (OR 1.47, 95% CI 1.12-1.92), and the recessive model TT versus CC/CT (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.10-1.89).

conclusionOur study indicates that minor allele T of prohibitin 1630 C>T polymorphism is associated with increased susceptibility to breast cancer.
