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

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an endogenous oxidant enzyme and can generate reactive oxygen species. The MPO G463A polymorphism influences MPO transcription levels and has been proposed to be associated with risk of lung cancer. To assess the effect of MPO G463A polymorphism on lung cancer risk in Asians, a pooled analysis of published case-control studies was performed. PubMed, Embase, China Biomedical Literature, and Wanfang Medicine databases were searched for eligible studies. The strength of the association between MPO G463A polymorphism and lung cancer risk was measured by odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence interval (95% CI). Finally, eight studies with a total of 1,679 lung cancer cases and 1,876 non-cancer controls were included. Overall, MPO G463A polymorphism was associated with decreased risk of lung cancer risk in Asians under two genetic models (OR AA vs. GG = 0.58, 95% CI 0.36-0.96, P = 0.033; OR AA vs. GG+AG = 0.60, 95% CI 0.37-0.98, P = 0.040). There was no obvious risk of publication bias in this meta-analysis. In conclusion, the pooled analysis suggests that MPO G463A polymorphism is associated with decreased risk of lung cancer risk in Asians.
