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 are several studies published to assess the associations of murine double minute 2 (MDM2) genetic polymorphisms with risk of malignant bone tumors, but they reported contradictory results and failed to confirm a strong and consistent association. To assess the evidence regarding the associations of MDM2 genetic polymorphisms with the risk of malignant bone tumors, we conducted a meta-analysis of epidemiological studies. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) was used to assess these possible associations. Four studies with a total of 3,958 individuals were finally included the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of two studies on MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism showed that MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of malignant bone tumors (G versus T: OR = 1.72, 95% CI 1.35-2.20, P < 0.001; GG versus TT: OR = 2.64, 95% CI 1.59-4.39, P < 0.001; GG/GT versus TT: OR = 1.87, 95% CI 1.33-2.62, P < 0.001; GG versus TT/GT: OR = 2.20, 95% CI 1.38-3.51, P = 0.001). Meta-analysis of those two studies on MDM2 rs1690916 polymorphism showed that MDM2 rs1690916 minor allele A was associated with decreased risk of malignant bone tumors (OR = 0.60, 95% CI 0.46-0.77, P < 0.001). Meta-analyses of available data show that there are significant associations of MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism and MDM2 rs1690916 polymorphism with malignant bone tumors.
