Association between β2-adrenoceptor gene polymorphisms and asthma risk: an updated meta-analysis.

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
backgroundEvidence is increasingly accumulated about multiple roles for the β2-adrenoceptor gene in asthma. The results were inconsistent partly due to small sample sizes. To assess the association between β2-adrenoceptor gene polymorphisms and asthma risk, a meta-analysis was performed.
methodsWe comprehensively searched the PubMed, EMBASE, BIOSIS Previews databases and extracted data from all eligible articles to estimate the association between β2-adrenoceptor gene polymorphisms and asthma risk. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.
resultsThirty-seven studies involving 6648 asthma patients and 15943 controls were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, significant associations were found in allelic genetic model (OR = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.01 ∼ 1.12), recessive genetic model (OR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.02 ∼ 1.21) for Arg/Gly16. Stratified by ethnicity and age, significant associations were also found in Asian population in allelic genetic model, recessive genetic model and addictive model. For Gln/Glu27, no significant association was found when we combined all eligible studies. Age stratification showed significant associations in adults in allelic genetic model and recessive genetic model, but no significant association was found among Asians and Caucasians in ethnicity stratification.
conclusionsThis meta-analysis implied that the β2-adrenoceptor Arg/Gly16 polymorphism was likely to contribute to asthma risk in Asian population. Gln/Glu27 polymorphism might be a contributor to asthma susceptibility for adults.
