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

There is a possible association between myeloperoxidase (MPO) 463G>A polymorphism and risk of lung cancer, but previous studies report conflicting results. We performed a meta-analysis of available molecular epidemiologic studies to comprehensively assess the association between MPO 463G>A polymorphism and risk of lung cancer. A systemic literature search was performed in Pubmed, Embase, and Wanfang databases for molecular epidemiologic studies on the association MPO 463G>A polymorphism and risk of lung cancer on March 16, 2013. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated to assess the strength of the association. Twenty-six individual case-control studies with a total of 18,433 subjects (7,752 cases and 10,681 controls) were finally included into the meta-analysis. Overall, MPO 463G>A polymorphism was significantly associated with decreased risk of lung cancer under two main genetic comparison models (for A versus G, OR = 0.91, 95 % CI 0.83-0.99, P = 0.035; for AG/AA versus GG, OR = 0.90, 95% CI 0.81-0.99, P = 0.029). Meta-analysis of studies with high quality also showed that MPO 463G>A polymorphism was significantly associated with decreased risk of lung cancer under two main genetic comparison models (for A versus G, OR = 0.91, 95% CI 0.83-0.99, P = 0.035; for AG/AA versus GG, OR = 0.90, 95% CI 0.80-0.99, P = 0.048). Subgroup analysis by ethnicity further showed that there was a significant association between MPO 463G>A polymorphism and decreased risk of lung cancer in Caucasians but not in Asians. The meta-analysis suggests that MPO 463G>A polymorphism is associated with decreased risk of lung cancer, especially in Caucasians.
