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 correlation between the variations in the polymorphic sites of survivin, rs9904341C/G and rs8073069C/G, and the pathogenesis of acute leukemia, as well as the guiding significance in clinical practice were investigated. We enrolled a total of 182 children with acute leukemia and 200 healthy children as the subjects. In accordance with the case-control method, the polymerase chain reaction was carried out for genetic typing of the two polymorphic sites, rs9904341C/G and rs8073069C/G. In the case group and the healthy group, the frequencies of C and G alleles in rs9904341C/G of survivin were 59.3 and 41.7%, and 46.7 and 50.3%, respectively, and the pairwise comparison showed statistically significant differences (P=0.008). Additionally, the frequencies of genotypes, C/C, C/G and G/G, were 38.5 and 41.7%; 19.8 and 26.5%; 16.5 and 27.0% in the case group and the healthy group, respectively, and the differences in comparisons showed statistical significance (P=0.033). The genotype frequency of C/C in the case group was 38.5%, significantly higher than that in the healthy group (26.5%). Compared with C/C, the risk coefficient of leukemia in patients with genotypes of C/G or G/G was significantly decreased. In the case group and the healthy group, the frequencies of C and G alleles in rs8073069C/G of survivin were 30.5 and 69.5%; 27.7 and 72.3%, respectively, and the pairwise comparison showed no statistically significant differences (P=0.404). Additionally, the frequencies of genotypes, C/C, C/G and G/G, were 11 and 39.0%; 50.0 and 9.0%; 37.5 and 53.5% in the case group and the healthy group, respectively, and the differences in comparisons showed no statistical significance (P=0.62). Compared with the genotype of C/C, we found that the risk of leukemia was not affected in patients with genotypes of C/G and G/G. In conclusion, the SNP of rs9904341C/G in survivin may be correlated with the risk of acute leukemia, and compared with C/C genotype, patients with C/G or G/G may have a decreased risk of acute leukemia. In survivin, rs8073069C/G may have no correlation with the risk of acute leukemia.
