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

To investigate the association between the susceptibility to cervical cancer and the single nucleotide polymorphisms of 5 tumor necrosis factor-α promoter genes (rs361525, rs1800629, rs1800750, rs1799964, and rs673) in Chinese women. A total of 946 peripheral blood samples were collected from women of Han Ethnicity in Shandong province. Of them, 452 were diagnosed with cervical squamous cell carcinomas. The study also included a control group of 494 healthy women. The targeted single nucleotide polymorphisms were analyzed by TaqMan probe method. (1) The rate of high-risk subtype human papillomavirus infection in exfoliated cervical epithelial cells was significantly higher in patients with cervical cancer than the control group (91.4% vs 10.3%, P < .01). The rate of human papillomavirus infection was lower in patients with carcinoma in situ than those with invasive carcinoma (77.9% vs 95.4%, P < .01). (2) There was a significant difference for rs361525 genotype (CC/CT/TT) between the control, carcinoma in situ, and invasive carcinoma groups ( P < .001). Both rs1800629 and rs1799964 genotypes (both GG/GA/AA) were also different between these groups ( P < .001 and P < .001). (3) The allele frequencies of rs361525, rs1800629, and rs1799964 were significantly correlated with the diagnosis of cervical cancer. The frequency of T allele in rs361525 was significantly higher for cervical cancer group (10.8%) than control group (3.8%; odds ratio = 3.04, 95% confidence interval = 1.76-5.25, P < .01). The frequency of A allele in rs1800629 was significantly higher for cervical cancer (29.9%) than control group (14.2%; odds ratio = 2.58, 95% confidence interval = 1.87-3.56, P < .01). The frequency of A allele in rs1799964 was also higher for cervical cancer group (38.3%) than control group (16.4%; odds ratio = 1.43, 95% confidence interval = 1.07-1.91, P < .05). The rs361525, rs1800629, and rs17999645 were significantly correlated with the diagnosis of cervical cancer.
