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

Adiponectin (ADIPOQ) is a cytokine produced by adipose tissue involved in carcinogenesis. ADIPOQ SNP rs2241766 has been extensively studied in colorectal cancer (CRC) community with contentious and conflicting conclusions. The objective of this study was to comprehensively assess the association between SNP rs2241766 and CRC risk. PubMed, Embase, CNKI, as well as the references of the retrieved articles were searched to identify the eligible studies for this meta-analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association. We also examined the heterogeneity and publication bias and performed sensitivity analyses. Seven studies with 2,414 cases and 2,796 controls together did not show any significant association between SNP rs2241766 and CRC risk. Subgroup analyses by ethnicity and sample size also failed to provide statistically significant evidence. This meta-analysis demonstrates that ADIPOQ SNP rs2241766 may not represent as an effect modifier for the risk of CRC.
