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 concerning the association between cytochrome P450 2A6 (CYP2A6) deletion polymorphism and lung cancer risk provided controversial results. To clarify the precise association, a meta-analysis was performed. The electronic databases PubMed, Chinese Biomedical Database and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure Database were searched for case-control studies last updated on June 3, 2012 that investigated CYP2A6 deletion polymorphism and lung cancer risk. The odds ratio (OR) and its respective 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) were used to measure the strength of association by means of a genetic model free approach. A total of 8 studies including 2,607 cases and 2,595 controls met the inclusion criteria and were subjected to the final analysis. The most appropriate co-dominant model was adopted. Overall, we found that CYP2A6 *1/*1 genotype was associated with an increased risk of lung cancer relative to *4/*4 genotype (OR = 2.65, 95 % CI: 1.84-3.81, P < 0.001). Significant association was also detected among Asians. Publication bias was absent in this meta-analysis. Therefore, our data suggested that the presence of the CYP2A6 *1/*1 might be associated with an increased lung cancer risk, especially for Asians. Further studies well-designed among different ethnicity populations are required.
