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

backgroundFew genetic risk factors have been uncovered that contribute specifically to the racial disparity in prostate cancer (CaP) observed in African Americans (AA). With the advent of ancestry informative marker (AIM) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) panels and powerful genetic strategies such as mapping by admixture linkage disequilibrium (MALD) it is possible to discover genes that underlie ethnic variation in disease risk.

methodsOne thousand one hundred thirty AA CaP cases enrolled in the North Carolina-Louisiana Prostate Cancer Project (PCaP) were genotyped using a 1,509 AIM SNP panel. MALD was performed using ADMIXMAP to test for linkage between CaP risk and ancestry estimates at each AIM SNP.

resultsThe largest increase of African ancestry was observed at marker rs12543473 (P = 0.0011), located on chromosome 8q24.21, and the greatest excess of European ancestry was observed at marker rs10768140 (P = 0.0004) at chromosome 11p13.

conclusionsThe study confirmed the 8q24 risk loci and identified a novel genomic region on 11p13 that is associated with CaP risk. These findings should be replicated in larger AA populations and combined with fine mapping data to further refine the novel 11p13 CaP risk loci.
