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

backgroundOxaliplatin is a chemotherapy agent active against digestive tumors. Peripheral neuropathy is one of the most important dose-limiting toxicity of this drug. It occurs in around 60-80% of the patients, and 15% of them develop severe neuropathy. The pathophysiology of oxaliplatin neurotoxicity remains unclear. SCN9A is a gene codifying for a subtype sodium channel (type IX, subunit α) and mutations in this gene are involved in neuropathic perception. In this study we investigated whether SCN9A genetic variants were associated with risk of neurotoxicity in patients diagnosed of cancer on treatment with oxaliplatin.

methodsBlood samples from 94 patients diagnosed of digestive cancer that had received oxaliplatin in adjuvant or metastatic setting were obtained from three hospitals in Madrid. These patients were classified into two groups: "cases" developed oxaliplatin-induced grade 3-4 neuropathy (n = 48), and "controls" (n = 46) had no neuropathy or grade 1. The neuropathy was evaluated by an expert neurologist and included a clinical examination and classification according to validated neurological scales: National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria (NCI-CTC), Oxaliplatin-Specific Neurotoxicity Scale (OSNS) and Total Neuropathy score (TNS). Genotyping was performed for 3 SCN9A missense polymorphisms: rs6746030 (R1150W), rs74401238 (R1110Q) and rs41268673 (P610T), and associations between genotypes and neuropathy were evaluated.

resultsWe found that SCN9A rs6746030 was associated with protection for severe neuropathy (OR = 0.39, 95% CI = 0.16-0.96; p = 0.041). Multivariate analysis adjusting for diabetes provided similar results (p = 0.036). No significant differences in neuropathy risk were detected for rs74401238 and rs41268673.

conclusionSCN9A rs6746030 was associated with protection for severe oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy. The validation of this exploratory study is ongoing in an independent series.
