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

backgroundAlthough many epidemiologic studies have investigated the CYP1A1 MspI gene polymorphisms and their associations with esophageal cancer (EC), definite conclusions cannot be drawn. To clarify the effects of CYP1A1 MspI polymorphisms on the risk of EC, a meta-analysis was performed in Chinese population.

methodsRelated studies were identified from PubMed, Springer Link, Ovid, Chinese Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Chinese Biology Medicine (CBM) till October 2014. Pooled ORs and 95% CIs were used to assess the strength of the associations.

resultsA total of 13 studies including 1,519 EC cases and 1,962 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. Overall, significant association was found between CYP1A1 MspI polymorphism and EC risk when all studies in the Chinese population pooled into this meta-analysis (C vs. T: OR = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.04 to 1.51; CC + CT vs. TT: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.06 to 1.72; CC vs. TT + CT: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.03 to 1.76). When we performed stratified analyses by geographical locations, histopathology type, and source of control, significantly increased risks were found in North China (C vs. T: OR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.12 to 1.70; CC vs. TT: OR = 1.72, 95% CI = 1.16 to 2.56; CC + CT vs. TT: OR = 1.52, 95% CI = 1.14 to 2.02; CC vs. TT + CT: OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.17 to 2.06), in the population-based studies (C vs. T: OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.05 to 1.42; CC vs. TT: OR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.02 to 1.88; CC + CT vs. TT: OR = 1.36, 95% CI = 1.10 to 1.69; CC vs. TT + CT: OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.13 to 1.81) and ESCC (C vs. T: OR = 1.17, 95% CI = 1.04 to 1.32; CC + CT vs. TT: OR = 1.28, 95% CI = 1.08 to 1.52).

conclusionsThis meta-analysis provides the evidence that CYP1A1 MspI polymorphism may contribute to the EC development in the Chinese population.
