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

backgroundIt has been reported that the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) miRNA-196 (miR-196) rs11614913 and miRNA-146a (miR-146a) rs2910164 are related to susceptibility to ulcerative colitis (UC). Because the previously reported results have been mixed and uncertain, the aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis and review to assess the relationship between these 2 SNPs and UC risk.

methodsIn this analysis, 5 studies involving 1023 cases and 1769 controls for miR-196 rs11614913 and 4 studies involving 827 cases and 1451 controls for miR-146 rs2910164 were included. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to pool the effect size.

resultsA decreased risk of UC was identified in homozygote comparison (GG vs CC: OR = 0.69, 95% CI: 0.52-0.93, P = .02), recessive comparison (GG vs CG + CC: OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.59-0.92, P = .007), and dominant comparison (GG + CG vs CC: OR = 0.79, 95% CI: 0.65-0.97, P = .02) of miR-146 rs2910164 in Asian but not Caucasian population. No evidence of an association was shown between the rs11614913 polymorphism and UC risk in allelic, heterozygote, homozygote, recessive, and dominant models in both Caucasian and Asian populations (P > .05).

conclusionsMiR-146 rs2910164, but not miR-196 rs11614913, was associated with a decreased risk of UC in Asian population. However, the results should be treated with caution because of the limited sample size and heterogeneity. Well-designed studies with large sample sizes and more ethnic groups are needed to validate the risks identified in the current meta-analysis and review.
