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

objectiveThe aim of the study was to evaluate whether the insertion/deletion polymorphism (rs3783553) locating in the 3' untranslated region (3'UTRs) of IL-1A was related to the risk of gastric cancer (GC) in a Chinese population and explore the possible molecular mechanism.

methodsGenomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood of 519 GC patients and 536 healthy control individuals. The IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism was genotyped by using a polymerase chain reaction assay. The vectors containing the insertion or deletion allele were constructed, and luciferase assay was used to detect the effect of the polymorphism on the transcriptional activity of IL-1A.

resultsStrong evidence of association was observed between the IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism and susceptibility to GC in the study. In addition, the `TTCA' insertion allele of rs3783553 disrupts the binding site for miR-122 and miR-378, thereby increasing transcription of IL-1α in vitro.

conclusionThese findings suggest that functional polymorphism rs3783553 in IL-1A could contribute to GC susceptibility, possibly or at least partially through affecting the transcriptional activity of IL-1A.
