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

Genetic alterations in the deleted in colorectal carcinoma (DCC) gene have been a priori reported to associate with metastasis in variety of human cancers. We investigated the association between potentially functional SNPs in DCC and susceptibility to esophageal (EC) and gastric (GC) cancers in Kashmir Valley. We genotyped two SNPs DCC rs714 (A>G) and DCC rs2229080 (C>G) of DCC in 135 EC patients, 108 GC patients, and 195 controls matched by age and sex in Kashmir Valley by polymerase chain reaction-RFLP method. Risk for developing EC and GC was estimated by binary logistic regression by using SPSS. We also performed a meta-analysis on DCC rs714 (A>G) and evaluated the association between the DCC rs714 (A>G) polymorphisms and cancer risk. A significant difference in DCC rs714 (A>G) genotype distribution between EC and GC cases and corresponding control groups was observed (odds ratio (OR) = 1.92; P = 0.03; P-trend = 0.04; false discovery rate (FDR) Pcorr = 0.03: OR = 2.15; P = 0.02; P-trend = 0.01; FDR Pcorr = 0.03). But no such association was observed in DCC rs2229080 (C>G). Further, DCC rs714 (A>G) AA genotype showed significantly increased risk for both gastric squamous cell carcinoma (OR = 5.63; P = 0.02; FDR Pcorr = 0.01) and gastric adenocarcinoma (OR = 2.15; P = 0.02; FDR Pcorr = 0.01). Smoking and salted tea are independently associated with both EC and GC, but gene-environment interaction did not further modulate the risk. Meta-analysis also suggested both independent and overall association of DCC rs714 (A>G) polymorphism with cancer (P = 0.000). In conclusion, genetic variations in DCC rs714 (A>G) modulate risk of EC and GC in high-risk Kashmir population.
