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

Glioma is the most common type of primary brain malignancy in adults. The X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) is an important candidate gene for influencing the pathogenesis of glioma. This study aimed to evaluate the potential association between XRCC1 genetic polymorphisms and glioma susceptibility. This case-control study was conducted in Chinese Han populations consisting of 620 glioma cases and 630 cancer-free controls. XRCC1 genetic polymorphisms were detected by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and verified using DNA sequencing methods. The c.910A>G and c.1779C>G genetic polymorphisms were identified in this study. Our data suggested that the genotypes/alleles of these two genetic polymorphisms were statistically associated with the increased risk of glioma. As for c.910A>G, the risk of glioma for genotype GG was significantly higher than wild genotype AA (odds ratio (OR) = 1.98, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.33-2.94, P = 0.001). As for c.1779C>G, the genotype GG was statistically associated with the increased risk of glioma compared to wild genotype CC (OR = 1.80, 95% CI 1.17-2.78, P = 0.007). Both of alleles G in c.910A>G and c.1779C>G may contribute to glioma susceptibility (G versus (vs.) A, OR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.09-1.54, P = 0.003; G vs. C, OR = 1.19, 95% CI 1.00-1.42, P = 0.045). Our findings indicate that the c.910A>G and c.1779C>G genetic polymorphisms are associated with the susceptibility to glioma in Chinese Han populations and might be used as molecular markers for evaluating glioma risk.
