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

INTRODUCTION AND

objectiveMany studies have been conducted on the association between the adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette, subfamily B, member 1 (ABCB1) gene C3435T polymorphism and leukemia risk, however, the previously published findings remain controversial. Thus, a meta-analysis was carried out to accurately evaluate the effect of this polymorphism on leukemia susceptibility.

methodsA computerized literature search was conducted of PubMed, Elsevier database, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure database, and Wanfang Database, to find published case-control studies exploring the relationship between ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and leukemia risk. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to assess the strength of association.

resultsA total of 17 studies of 2,431 cases and 3,028 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The results of overall comparisons suggest that there is a significant association between ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and leukemia risk under two genetic models (TT vs CC: OR=1.39, 95% CI=1.04-1.84, P=0.02; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.20, 95% CI=1.06-1.36, P=0.004). In the subgroup analyses by ethnicity, age, and leukemia subtype, a significant association was found in Caucasian (CT vs CC: OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.03-1.45, P=0.02; TT vs CC: OR=1.34, 95% CI=1.10-1.64, P=0.004; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.27, 95% CI=1.08-1.49, P=0.004), adult leukemia (CT vs CC: OR=1.46, 95% CI=1.17-1.83, P=0.001; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.43, 95% CI=1.01-2.03, P=0.04), and lymphocytic leukemia (TT vs CC: OR=1.73, 95% CI=1.19-2.51, P=0.004; TT vs CC+CT: OR=1.62, 95% CI=1.10-2.38, P=0.01; CT+TT vs CC: OR=1.28, 95% CI=1.10-1.48, P=0.001).

conclusionThe meta-analysis suggests that ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism is associated with increased risk of leukemia.
