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

aimsThe purpose of the study is to investigate the relationship between rs1799939, rs1800858 and rs74799832 polymorphisms of RET with thyroid cancer (TC) susceptibility.

methodsGenotypes distribution of control groups were tested by Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). Rs1799939, rs1800858 and rs74799832 polymorphisms of RET were researched in 135 patients with TC and 135 healthy people using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated to evaluate the association between RET polymorphisms and the risk of TC by Chi-squared test.

resultsGenotypes frequencies of the control group were consistent with HWE. The frequency of genotype AA and allele A in rs1799939 were significantly higher in patients with TC than controls (OR=3.768, P=0.046; OR=1.695, P=0.035). Genotype GG and allele G of rs1800858 remarkably increased the risk of TC (OR=2.149, P=0.039; OR=1.45, P=0.039). Moreover, CC genotype and C allele in rs74799832 polymorphism was related with TC susceptibility. (OR=2.28, P=0.049; OR=1.566, P=0.049).

conclusionIn present result, RET rs1799939, rs1800858 and rs74799832 polymorphisms might be the risk factors for TC.
