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 were a number of studies performed to assess the association between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk in Asians, but no consensus was available up to now. We conducted a meta-analysis to assess the association between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk in Asians. Case-control studies investigating the association between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk in Asians were searched in Pubmed and Wanfang databases. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was calculated. Finally, seven studies involving a total of 2,051 cases and 2,798 controls met the inclusion criteria and were included into the meta-analysis. Overall, there was an obvious association between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk in Asians (Ser versus Pro: OR = 1.42, 95% CI 1.08-1.87, P = 0.013; SerSer versus ProPro: OR = 1.86, 95% CI 1.08-3.19, P = 0.024; SerSer/ProSer versus ProPro: OR = 1.61, 95% CI 1.10-2.35, P = 0.014; SerSer versus ProPro/ProSer: OR = 1.46, 95% CI 1.02-2.10, P = 0.041). There was low risk of publication bias in the meta-analysis. This meta-analysis suggests that there is an obvious association between NQO1 Pro187Ser polymorphism and colorectal cancer risk in Asians.
