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

Genome-wide association studies have identified 8q24.21-rs6983267 as a new colorectal cancer (CRC) and colorectal adenoma (CRA) susceptibility locus in populations of European descent. Since then, the relationship between 8q24.21-rs6983267 and CRC/CRA has been reported in various ethnic groups; however, these studies have yielded inconsistent results. To investigate this inconsistency and derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, we conducted a meta-analysis of 31 studies, including 51,293 cases and 58,962 controls for CRC, and 8,148 cases and 17,065 controls for CRA. Potential sources of heterogeneity and publication bias were also systematically explored. Overall, the summary odds ratio of G variant for CRC was 1.18 (95% CI, 1.16-1.21; P < 10(-5)) and 1.17 (95% CI, 1.11-1.23; P < 10(-5)) for CRA. Significant results were observed using dominant or recessive genetic model for the polymorphism. In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased risks were found in East Asians and Caucasian populations; while no significant associations were detected among African Americans. After stratifying by sample size and control source, significant associations were also obtained. This meta-analysis suggests that the 8q24.21-rs6983267 polymorphism is associated with CRC/CRA susceptibility, but these associations vary in different ethnic populations.
