Effects of gene polymorphisms in the endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway on clinical outcomes of chemoradiotherapy in Chinese patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Article in Acta pharmacologica Sinica, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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.
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
There is considerable inter-individual variabil¬ity in chemoradiotherapy responses in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients receiv¬ing the same or similar treatment protocols. In this study we evaluated the association between the gene polymorphisms in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathway and chemoradiation responses in Chinese NPC patients. A total of 150 patients with histopathologically conformed NPC and treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy were enrolled. Genotypes in ER stress pathway genes, including VCP (valosin-containing protein) rs2074549, HSP90B1 rs17034943, CANX (calnexin) rs7566, HSPA5 [heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 5] rs430397, CALCR (calcitonin receptor) rs2528521, and XBP1 (X-box binding protein 1) rs2269577 were analyzed by Sequenom MassARRAY system. The short-term effects of primary tumor and lymph node after radiotherapy were assessed based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) of WHO. And acute radiation-induced toxic reactions were evaluated according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group or European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (RTOG/EORTC). The effects of gene polymorphisms on clinical outcomes of chemoradiotherapy were assessed by chi-square test, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. We found that CT and CT+CC genotypes of CANX rs7566 was significantly correlated with primary tumor treatment efficacy at 3 months after chemoradiotherapy and with occurrence of radiation-induced myelosuppression in Chinese NPC patients. CT and CT+CC genotypes of CALCR rs2528521 were significantly correlated with cervical lymph node efficacy at 3 months after chemoradiotherapy. And CC and CT+CC genotypes of VCP rs2074549 were significantly associated with occurrence of myelosuppression. In conclusion, SNPs of VCP rs2074549, CANX rs7566 and CALCR rs2528521 in ER stress pathway genes may serve as predictors for clinical outcomes of chemoradiotherapy in Chinese NPC patients.
