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

purposeX-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) repairs single-strand breaks in DNA. Several reports have shown the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (Arg194Trp, Pro206Pro, Arg280His, Arg399Gln) in XRCC1 to diseases. Limited population data are available regarding SNPs in XRCC1, especially in African populations. In this study, genotype distributions of four SNPs in worldwide populations were examined and compared with those reported previously. MATERIALS AND

methodsFour SNPs (Arg194Trp, Pro206Pro, Arg280His, Arg399Gln) in XRCC1 from genomic DNA samples of 10 populations were evaluated by using polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.

resultsThe frequency of the minor allele corresponding to the Trp allele of XRCC1Arg194Trp was higher in Asian populations than in African and Caucasian populations. As for XRCC1Pro206Pro, Africans showed higher minor allele frequencies than did Asian populations, except for Tamils and Sinhalese. XRCC1 Arg280His frequencies were similar among Africans and Caucasians but differed among Asian populations. Similarly, lower mutant XRCC1 Arg399Gln frequencies were observed in Africans.

conclusionsThis study is the first to show the existence of a certain genetic heterogeneity in the worldwide distribution of four SNPs in XRCC1.
