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

We conducted this case-control study to assess the role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) -2578C/A, +460T/C, +1612G/A, +936C/T, and -634G/C polymorphisms in the development of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and analyzed the association of gene polymorphisms with demographic and clinical characteristics of RCC. This study included 412 consecutive primary RCC patients and 824 controls. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was performed to detect VEGF -2578C/A, +460T/C, +1612G/A, +936C/T, and -634G/C polymorphisms. Compared with the control subjects, the RCC cancer cases were more likely to have a habit of cigarette smoking, and suffered from hypertension and diabetes. Conditional logistic regression analysis showed that individuals carrying the AA genotype of -2578C/A were more likely to greatly increase risk of RCC, and the CC genotype of +460T/C revealed a significant association with increased risk of RCC. The CA + AA genotype of -2578C/A had a significantly increased risk of RCC in ever cigarette smokers, and individuals who suffered from hypertension and diabetes. TC + CC genotype of +460T/C was significantly associated with the elevated risk of RCC in those suffered from hypertension and diabetes. Our study suggests that -2578C/A and +460T/C polymorphisms of VEGF modulate the risk of developing RCC in Chinese population.
