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 -765G > C, -1195G > A, and 8473T > C polymorphisms in cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) gene polymorphisms and periodontitis risk were investigated based on published studies; however, their results could not give a conclusive result. Hence, we performed this meta-analysis of six published studies with eight case-control studies including these three polymorphisms which searched from PubMed and Web of Science up to October 15th, 2013. Odds ratios (ORs) with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the association between the three polymorphisms of COX-2 and periodontitis risk. The results from 2,580 periodontitis patients and 3,073 healthy controls showed that none of -765G > C, -1195G > A, or 8473T > C polymorphism was not associated with periodontitis susceptibility [Take -765G > C for example: OR = 0.94, 95% CI = (0.57-1.53) for C vs. G; OR = 2.34, 95% CI = (0.72-7.62) for CC vs. GG; OR = 0.68, 95% CI = (0.46-1.01) for CG vs. GG; OR = 0.81, 95% CI = (0.52-1.27) for (CG+GG) vs. GG; OR = 2.57, 95% CI = (0.80-8.29) for CC vs. (GG+CG)]. In subgroup analyses according to the type of periodontitis and ethnicity for -765G > C and -1195G > A, and deviations in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for -765G > C, we only observe a boundary association between -1195G > A polymorphism and Asian population. However, due to limitations of this meta-analysis, the results should treat with caution and we suggest the further researches should be carried out to verify our results.
