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

backgroundTransforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) has dual roles inhibiting and promoting carcinogenesis. Although many researchers have conducted association studies between TGFB1 C-509T polymorphism and the risk of developing gastric cancer, the results are not uniform.

methodsWe genotyped 1028 gastric cancer patients and 958 controls by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. Immunohistochemistry was performed to assess the expression of TGF-β1 in the cancer and noncancerous tissues of 120 gastric cancer patients. mRNA expression was also measured in noncancerous gastric mucosa by qRT-PCR in the 282 subjects.

resultsThe CT genotype in the TGFB1 C-509T polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer development (adjusted OR 1.35, 95 % CI 1.07-1.71, P = 0.013), especially for intestinal-type cancer (adjusted OR 1.43, 95 % CI 1.08-1.90, P = 0.014). More frequent TGF-β1 expression was found in the center of cancer tissue in the TGFB1-509T carrier group than in the others (90.5 % vs. 72.2 %, P = 0.010). T-carriers also presented higher expression level of gastric TGF-β1 mRNA than non T-carriers (median 1.29 vs. 0.80, P = 0.004) when they were infected by H. pylori. Cancer patients showed elevated gastric TGFB1gene expression compared to the control group (median 1.22 vs. 0.89, P = 0.009).

conclusionsThe carcinogenic effect of TGF-β1 might be associated with increased gastric TGF-β1 expression in subjects with the T allele of TGFB1-509.
