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

Epidemiological studies investigating the association between the insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS1) gene Gly972Arg (rs1801278) polymorphism and various carcinomas risk reported conflicting results. Thus, a systemic review and meta-analysis of published studies were performed to assess the possible association. A comprehensive search was conducted to identify all eligible studies of IRS1 Gly972Arg polymorphism and cancer risk. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the associations. A total of 16 independent studies, including 11,776 cases and 11,654 controls, were identified. When all studies were pooled, we found a significant association between IRS1 Gly972Arg polymorphism and increased cancer risk under dominant model (OR = 1.16, 95 %CI = 1.04-1.30, P = 0.007) and allelic model (OR = 1.16, 95 %CI = 1.02-1.30, P = 0.02). In subgroup analysis based on cancer type, increased cancer risk was found in ovarian cancer (dominant: OR = 1.55, 95 %CI = 1.17-2.05, P = 0.002; allelic: OR = 1.55, 95 %CI = 1.19-2.01, P = 0.001), breast cancer (allelic: OR = 1.12, 95 %CI = 1.00-1.26, P = 0.05), and other cancers (allelic: OR = 1.31, 95 %CI = 1.00-1.71, P = 0.05). When stratified by study types, significant associations were observed in both cohort studies (dominant: OR = 1.25, 95 %CI = 1.06-1.47, P = 0.007; allelic: OR = 1.25, 95 %CI = 1.07-1.46, P = 0.005) and case-control studies (dominant: OR = 1.15, 95 %CI = 1.01-1.31, P = 0.04). In the subgroup analyses by ethnicity, significantly increased cancer risk was suggested among both Caucasians (dominant: OR = 1.13, 95 %CI = 1.02-1.26, P = 0.02; allelic: OR = 1.13, 95 %CI = 1.03-1.25, P = 0.01) and mixed population (dominant: OR = 1.22, 95 %CI = 1.01-1.46, P = 0.04). Our investigations demonstrate that IRS1 Gly972Arg polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of cancer, and additional well-designed studies are warranted to validate these findings.
