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.
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 polymorphism of X-ray repair cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) Thr241Met has been implicated to alter the risk of glioma, but the results are controversial. Medline, PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were independently searched by two investigators up to 13 July 2013. Summary odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for Thr241Met polymorphism and prostate cancer were calculated. Statistical analysis was performed with the software program Stata 12.0. A total of 10 independent studies, including 4,136 cases and 5,233 controls, were identified. Our analysis suggested that Thr241Met was not associated with glioma risk in overall population. In the subgroup analysis, we detected no significant association between Thr241Met polymorphism and glioma risk in different descent populations. Subgroup analysis was held by source of controls, significant association was found between this polymorphism and glioma risk for population-based studies (homozygote model: OR = 1.747, 95% CI = 1.123-2.717, Ph = 0.059, I(2) = 59.7%; recessive model, OR = 1.455, 95% CI = 1.179-1.795, Ph = 0.111, I(2) = 50.1%; allele model, OR = 1.258, 95% CI = 1.010-1.566, Ph = 0.011, I(2) = 72.9%). This meta-analysis showed the evidence that XRCC3 Thr241Met polymorphism was associated with a low risk of glioma development.
