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

The present case-control study was conducted on 110 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and 120 healthy children to determine the impact of polymorphisms in paired-box gene 8 (PAX8) antisense RNA 1 (PAX8-AS1), namely rs4848320 C>T, rs6726151 T>G and rs1110839 G>T, on ALL risk. Genotyping was performed through the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. The findings indicated that the rs4848320 variant increased the risk of ALL in codominant [CT vs. CC: odds ratio (OR)=2.13, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.16-3.90, P=0.014; and TT vs. CC: OR=2.21, 95% CI=1.03-4.74, P=0.041], dominant (CT+TT vs. CC: OR=2.15, 95% CI=1.22-3.81, P=0.009,) and allele (T vs. C: OR=1.55, 95% CI=1.07-2.25, P=0.024) inheritance models. The rs6726151 variant significantly increased the risk of ALL in codominant (GT vs. GG: OR=1.88, 95% CI=1.08-3.27, P=0.036) and overdominant (GT vs. GG+TT: OR=2.08, 95% CI=1.23-3.53, P=0.008) inheritance models. No significant relationship was identified between the rs1110839 G>T variant and disease risk/protection in childhood ALL. In conclusion, the findings of the present study indicated that rs4848320 and rs6726151 polymorphisms of PAX8-AS1 may be a risk factor for the development of childhood ALL. Further studies with larger sample sizes and different ethnicities are now required to confirm these findings.
