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

Many epidemiologic studies have investigated the association between myeloperoxidase (MPO) G-463A polymorphism and lung cancer risk, but the results were controversial. We performed a meta-analysis of 25 studies on MPO polymorphism and lung cancer risk published before July 2013. The allele of A was found to be associated with decreased risk of lung cancer compared with G allele (OR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.82-0.98) in the general population. The significant association remained in the comparison between AA + AG and GG (OR, 0.92; 95% CI, 0.87-0.98). When it was stratified according to Asian population, the association between MPO polymorphism and lung cancer risk was further strengthened. However, no associations were found in the Caucasian population. This meta-analysis has demonstrated that MPO polymorphism might contribute to individual's susceptibility to lung cancer in Asian population. Caucasian authors could re-investigate the association between MPO polymorphism and lung cancer risk with more specific participants. Future studies focusing on interactions between combined genes and environmental risk factors are warranted.
