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

The accumulation of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the displacement loop (D-loop) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) may be associated with an increased cancer risk. In this case-control study, the SNPs in the mitochondrial D-loop of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients were identified and their association with cancer risk was evaluated. The minor alleles of nucleotides 16293A/G, 262A/G and 488T/C were associated with an increased risk, whereas the minor alleles of nucleotides 16298T/C and 16319G/A were associated with a decreased risk for RCC. Moreover, the nucleotides 16293, 262, 16298 and 16319 were identified as specifically associated with the risk of clear cell RCC (ccRCC), whereas 262 and 488 were specifically associated with papillary RCC and renal oncocytoma. In conclusion, SNPs in mtDNA are potential modifiers of RCC. The analysis of genetic polymorphisms in the mitochondrial D-loop may help identify the patient subgroups at a high risk of developing RCC.
