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

backgroundBreast cancer is among the leading cause of cancer-related-deaths in women, supporting the need for the identification of novel prognostic and predictive biomarkers. Recent studies have identified common genetic variants in a region on chromosome 9p21 associated with an increased risk of developing different cancers. Here, we explored the association of a genetic variant in CDKN2A/B, rs10811661, for the first time in 564 subjects with/without breast cancer.

methodGenotyping was performed using TaqMan real time PCR method. The associations of this genetic variant with breast cancer risk and pathological information of patients were assessed.

resultsWe observed that patients with breast cancer had a higher frequency of TT genotype (P<.001) than control group, which was associated with advanced TNM classification (P=.04) and larger tumor size (P=.014), as detected by the recessive genetic inheritance model. Moreover, the logistic regression under recessive genetic model revealed that breast cancer patients with TT had higher risk of breast cancer, compared to CC/CT genotypes (eg, OR=4.9, 95% CI:1.9-12, P=.001), after adjusted for potential confounders, age, BMI, and family history.

conclusionWe demonstrated that patients carrying the TT genotype for CDKN2A/B rs10811661 polymorphism had the increased risk of breast cancer susceptibility. However, further investigations are warranted in a larger and prospective setting to explore the value of this marker as a risk stratification marker in breast cancer.
