Quantitative assessment of the influence of common variations on 6p21 and lung cancer risk.

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
Genome-wide association studies have identified 6p21 as a new lung cancer susceptibility locus in populations of European descent. Since then, the relationship between common variations on 6p21 and lung cancer has been reported in various ethnic groups; however, these studies have yielded inconsistent results. To investigate this inconsistency, we performed a meta-analysis of 11 studies involving a total of 36,890 cases and 52,767 controls for three widely studies polymorphisms (rs4324798, rs3117582, and rs9295740) to evaluate its effect on genetic susceptibility for lung cancer. An overall random-effects per-allele odds ratio (OR) of 1.11 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.04–1.19; P = 0.002) and 1.20 (95% CI 1.14–1.26; P < 10(−5)) was found for the rs4324798 and rs3117582 polymorphism, respectively. Marginal significant associations were also detected for rs9295740 with per-allele OR of 1.09 (95% CI 1.01–1.18; P = 0.03). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased risks were found for the three polymorphisms among Caucasians. Similar results were also observed using dominant or recessive genetic models. This meta-analysis demonstrated that the three common variations (rs4324798, rs3117582, and rs9295740) on 6p21 are risk factors associated with increased lung cancer susceptibility, but these associations vary in different ethnic populations.
