C282Y polymorphism in the HFE gene is associated with risk of breast cancer.

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.
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
The C282Y and H63D polymorphisms in the HFE gene have been implicated in susceptibility of breast cancer, but a number of studies have reported inconclusive results. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between the C282Y and H63D polymorphisms in the HFE gene and breast cancer risk by meta-analysis. We searched PubMed and Embase databases, covering all related studies until March 2, 2013. Statistical analysis was performed using STATA 10.0. A total of 7 studies including 1,720 cases and 18,296 controls for HFE C282Y polymorphism and 5 studies including 942 cases and 1,571 controls for HFE H63D polymorphism were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that HFE C282Y polymorphism was significantly associated with increased risk of breast cancer under homozygotes vs. wild-type model (OR = 2.06, 95%CI = 1.19-3.58) and recessive model (OR = 1.98, 95%CI = 1.14-3.44) but not under heterozygotes vs. wild-type model (OR = 0.97, 95%CI = 0.70-1.35), dominant model (OR = 1.00, 95%CI = 0.72-1.40) and multiplicative model (OR = 1.04, 95%CI = 0.76-1.42). However, we did not find any association between HFE H63D polymorphism and breast cancer risk under all genetic models. This current meta-analysis suggested that C282Y polymorphism rather than H63D might be associated with increased risk of breast cancer.
