Association of methionine synthase rs1801394 and methionine synthase reductase rs1805087 polymorphisms with meningioma in adults: A meta-analysis.
Article in Biomedical reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Several epidemiological studies suggested that methionine synthase (MTRR) rs1801394 and methionine synthase reductase (MTR) rs1805087 polymorphisms may be involved in the risk of meningioma in adults; however, the results from different case-control studies have been inconsistent. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate the association of MTRR and MTR polymorphisms with meningioma. PubMed, Web of Knowledge, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang databases were searched up to October 30, 2013 and 3 publications, involving 7 case-control studies, were finally included. Following data extraction, a meta-analysis was conducted using Stata 12.0 software. The pooled results based on the fixed effects model demonstrated that the MTRR rs1801394 polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of meningioma [odds ratio (OR)=1.18, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.05-1.32 for G vs. A; OR=1.41, 95% CI: 1.12-1.77 for GG vs. AA; OR=1.08, 95% CI: 0.94-1.33 for AG vs. AA; OR=1.19, 95% CI: 1.01-1.40 for (AG+GG) vs. AA; and OR=1.32, 95% CI: 1.07-1.63 for GG vs. (AG+AA)]; however, an association between the MTR rs1805087 polymorphism and the risk of meningioma was not identified [OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.88-1.12 for G vs. A; OR=1.09, 95% CI: 0.80-1.48 for GG vs. AA; OR=0.95, 95% CI: 0.82-1.11 for AG vs. AA; OR=0.97, 95% CI: 0.84-1.13 for (AG+GG) vs. AA; and OR=1.09, 95% CI: 0.80-1.48 for GG vs. (AG+AA)]. Therefore, the currently available evidence suggests that the MTRR rs1801394 polymorphism may increase the risk of meningioma, whereas the MTRR rs1801394 polymorphism is not associated with meningioma.
