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

Gastric cancer (GC) is the 5th most prevalent cancer. The etiology of GC is still poorly understood. We performed a case-control study in a Chinese population to investigate the association of rs2243248 (-1098 G/T), rs2227284 (-33 C/T), rs2243250 (-589 T/C) and rs2070874 (-107 T/C) polymorphisms and haplotypes with the development of gastric cancer in a Chinese population. A total of 362 patients with gastric cancer and 384 controls were recruited between December 2013 and December 2015. Genotyping of rs2243248 (-1098 G/T), rs2227284 (-33 C/T), rs2243250 (-589 T/C) and rs2070874 (-107 T/C) was performed in a 384-well plate format on the sequenom MassARRAY platform, and analyzed by MALDI-TOF MS. The TC and CC genotypes of rs2243250 (-589 T/C) were associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer when compared with the TT genotype, with adjusted ORs (95% CI) of 1.52 (1.07-2.15) and 2.13 (1.30-3.51), respectively. The TTTT haplotype revealed a reduced risk of gastric cancer (OR=0.65, 95% CI=0.45-0.94). No linkage disequilibrium was found among IL-4 rs2243248, rs2227284, rs2243250 and rs2070874. In summary, our findings support a significant association of IL-4 rs2243250 polymorphism with the risk of gastric cancer in the Chinese population, and IL-4 haplotype contributes to the development of this disease.
