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

BACKGROUND/

aimSeveral reports have investigated the role of exonuclease 1 (EXO1) rs1047840 in lung cancer risk in different ethnic populations. Nevertheless, the results have been controversial. We aimed to assess the possible association between EXO1 rs1047840 and risk of lung cancer in a meta-analysis.

methodsHuman hospital- or population-based studies released before December 16, 2013 were identified by systematic search of the PubMed and Embase databases. Data were extracted in duplicate from each study. An OR and 95% CI (odds ratio and 95% confidence interval) was calculated to evaluate the effects of EXO1 rs1047840 on lung carcinogenesis.

resultsA total of 1,114 lung cancer patients and 1,166 well-matched controls were analyzed in this study. The fixed-effects meta-analysis revealed that carriage of a single A allele, compared to the carriage of single G allele, was associated with 1.18 times increased risk of lung cancer (A vs. G: OR =1.18; 95% CI: 1.03-1.35; PHeterogeneity, 0.121).

conclusionThis first meta-analysis demonstrates that the A allele of EXO1 rs1047840 may confer modulating effects on the risk of lung cancer and could be used as a marker for early detection and primary prevention.
