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

Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a chemokine which plays critical roles in regulating host immune responses. Researches have shown that MCP-1 may greatly participate in the development of different cancers. In the current study, we investigated the effect of MCP-1 on ovarian cancer by examining the association between MCP-1 genetic polymorphisms and the susceptibility to ovarian cancer. MCP-1 -2158A/G and MCP-1 -362C/G polymorphisms were examined in ovarian cancer patients and healthy controls by using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Results showed that percentages of MCP-1 -2158GG genotype and G allele were significantly higher in ovarian cancer patients than in controls (odd ratio (OR) = 1.87; 95 % confidence interval (CI), 1.19-2.76; P = 0.012 and OR = 1.47; 95 % CI, 1.11-1.79; P = 0.003; data were adjusted for age and smoking status). The MCP-1 -362GG genotype also revealed increased number in patients. Stratification analyses presented that ovarian cancer cases with serous-papillary type had significantly increased percentage of -362GG genotype than those with other types (13.1 versus 5.0 %, P = 0.032; data were adjusted for age and smoking status). Also, we evaluated the relation between these two polymorphisms and serum level of MCP-1. We identified that the subjects with MCP-1 -2158AG and GG genotypes had clearly increased serum level of MCP-1 than those with AA genotype. These data suggest that MCP-1 may be involved in the pathogenesis of ovarian cancer.
