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

Though previous studies investigated the association between glutathione S-transferase M 1 (GSTM1) null genotype and ovarian cancer risk, the effect of GSTM1 null genotype on ovarian cancer risk was still unclear. To comprehensively quantify the association between GSTM1 null genotype and ovarian cancer risk, we performed a meta-analysis. Eleven studies from ten publications were identified from PubMed database. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to assess the association. Meta-analysis of the total 11 studies showed that GSTM1 null genotype was not associated with ovarian cancer risk (OR = 1.03, 95% CI 0.92-1.14, P = 0.625). The cumulative meta-analyses showed a trend of no association between GSTM1 null genotype and ovarian cancer risk as information accumulated by year. There was no evidence of publication bias in the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of the 11 available studies shows that GSTM1 null genotype is not associated with ovarian cancer risk.
