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 a case-control study to assess the XRCC4 genes polymorphism and development of pancreatic cancer. A case-control study including 248 cases and 496 controls was conducted in a Chinese population. Genotypes of XRCC4 rs2075685, rs10040363, rs963248 and rs1805377 were determined using Polymerase Chain Reaction combined with a restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). Pancreatic cancer cases were more likely to have a history of diabetes, a higher BMI, family history of cancer and a habit of alcohol drinking when compared with control. Conditional logistic regression analysis showed that individuals carrying TT genotype of XRCC4 rs2075685 was associated with increased risk of pancreatic cancer when compared with GG genotype, and the OR (95% CI) was 1.62 (1.04-2.52). Individuals with GT+TT genotype of XRCC4 rs2075685 were significantly associated with increased risk of pancreatic cancer in those with ever tobacco smoking habit, and the OR (95% CI) was 1.77 (1.07-2.98). In conclusion, our results suggest that XRCC4 rs2075685 polymorphism plays an important role in the risk of pancreatic cancer in a Chinese population, especially in tobacco smokers.
