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

Chromosome position 9p21 encodes three-tumor suppressors p16(INK4a), p14(ARF), and p15(INK4b) and the long non-coding RNA ANRIL (antisense non-coding RNA in the INK4 locus). The rs11515 single-nucleotide polymorphism in the p16 (INK4a) /p14 (ARF) 3'-untranslated region is associated with glioblastoma, melanoma, and other cancers. This study investigated the frequency and effect of rs11515 genotypes in breast cancer. Genomic DNA samples from 400 women (200 with and 200 without a diagnosis of breast cancer) were genotyped for the rs11515 major (C) and minor (G) alleles. The rs11515 polymorphism was also investigated in 108 heart tissues to test for tissue-specific effects. Four 9p21 transcripts, p16 (INK4a) , p14 (ARF) , p15 (INK4b) , and ANRIL were measured in breast tumors and myocardium using quantitative PCR. Heterozygotes (CG genotype) were more frequent in women with breast cancer compared to the control population (P = 0.0039). In those with breast cancer, the CG genotype was associated with an older age (P = 0.016) and increased lymph node involvement (P = 0.007) compared to homozygotes for the major allele (CC genotype). In breast tumors, the CG genotype had higher ANRIL (P = 0.031) and lower p16 (INK4a) (P = 0.006) expression compared to the CC genotype. The CG genotype was not associated with altered 9p21 transcripts in heart tissue. In breast cancer, the rs11515 CG genotype is more frequent and associated with a more aggressive tumor that could be due to increased ANRIL and reduced p16 (INK4a) expression. The absence of association between rs11515 genotypes and 9p21 transcripts in heart tissue suggests this polymorphism has tissue- or disease-specific functions.
