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

Emerging evidences have shown that common genetic polymorphisms in X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene may be associated with the development of pancreatic cancer, but individually published studies and previous meta-analyses revealed inconclusive results. The aim of our study was to investigate the association between polymorphisms in XRCC1 gene and pancreatic cancer risk. We conducted a search of PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were determined as measures of the strength of association between polymorphisms of XRCC1 and pancreatic cancer risk. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were evaluated. All analyses were undertaken using the STATA 13.0. A total of 10 studies were included in this systematic review. Five common functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in XRCC1 gene were found, including Arg399Gln G > A (rs25487), Arg194Trp C > T (rs1799782), Arg280His G > A (rs25489), c.1517G > C, c.1471G > A. Results from our stratified analysis based on Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) showed that there was a robust significant association between Arg280His polymorphism and pancreatic cancer risk (allelic model, OR 0.743, 95% CI 0.576-0.958, P = 0.022; heterozygous model, OR 0.701, 95% CI 0.525-0.936, P = 0.016; dominant model, OR 0.710, 95% CI 0.537-0.939, P = 0.016). We also found a statistically significant association between c.1517G > C polymorphism and pancreatic cancer risk (Allelic model, OR 1.252, 95% CI 1.064-1.473, P = 0.007). No significant results were obtained for Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp and c.1471G > A polymorphisms. The present meta-analysis suggested that Arg280His and c.1517G > C polymorphisms in XRCC1 gene were associated with pancreatic cancer risk.
