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

backgroundCD95 rs2234767 polymorphism in the promotor region of CD95 gene has been implicated in several studies of cervical cancer. However, the results have not been conclusively established.

objectiveThe main aim of this study was to deal with the controversy with respect to the correlation between CD95 rs2234767 polymorphism and risk of cervical cancer through a meta-analysis.

methodsAssociation studies that pertain to CD95 rs2234767 polymorphism and risk of cervical cancer were identified up to May 26, 2014. ORs and 95% CIs were calculated assuming AA versus GG, AA + AG versus GG, AA versus AG + GG, A versus G and AG versus GG genetic models.

resultsA total of 5 case-control studies were included in this meta-analysis. Overall, no significant effect modification of cervical cancer risk was revealed either at the genotypic or the allelic level for CD95 rs2234767 polymorphism. This null association persisted in the stratified analysis of Asian population.

conclusionsThese findings revealed that CD95 rs2234767 polymorphism may not act as a causative agent of cervical cancer. Further evidence is needed to confirm our findings.
