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

backgroundThere is increasing evidence that a major part of the tumour-promoting action of alcohol is mediated via its first, toxic and carcinogenic metabolite acetaldehyde. MATERIALS &

methodsThe double blinded randomized control trial was designed for 82 male volunteers aged 20-29 years. Exclusion criteria were individual under antibiotic therapy, smokers, mutant Aldehyde Dehydrogenase deficient subject or any other systemic disease. Subjects were randomized in experimental (alcohol + soft drink) and control group (soft drink) from each pair of equal body weighted volunteers. The amount of alcohol consumed was calculated to be equivalent to 0.7 g alcohol/kilogram of body weight. Samples of breath for Acetaldehyde concentration (AC) were captured with the aid of a highly reproducible fuel cell gas-sampling device (PST-M1; Lions Laboratories, Cardiff, Wales). In Statistical analysis, mean AC was compared among both groups at different interval using paired t-test and Analysis of variance.

resultsMean acetaldehyde level was recorded higher ([Formula: see text]) among interventional group which can be produced from ethanol during metabolism or by oro-pharyngeal microbes. After 15 minutes of drink, the AC was [Formula: see text] in ethanol group compared to [Formula: see text] in soft-drink group. There was significant increase in AC after 1 hour ([Formula: see text]) which was [Formula: see text] in ethanol group compared to [Formula: see text] in soft-drink group.

conclusionAlthough acetaldehyde is metabolite of alcohol, its organ specific production with risk for oro-pharyngeal and pulmonary carcinogenesis makes alcohol an independent risk factor of carcinogenesis.
