Overall survival of classical Hodgkins lymphoma in Saudi patients is affected by XPG repair gene polymorphism.
Article in Biomedical reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
In Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL), single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of specific DNA repair genes have been identified to have an important role in the risk of HL. Consequently, they may also serve an important role in HL prognosis and disease outcome. The present study aimed to define an SNP molecular profile, based on DNA repair genes mutations, as predictive biomarkers for the prognostic outcome of patients with Classical HL (CHL) in Saudi Arabia. Genotyping of selected SNPs located in selected DNA repair genes was performed on 100 CHL cases and an equivalent number of healthy controls. No significant associations between CHL disease relapse (DR) or overall survival (OS) and 4 DNA repair genes were observed, with the exception of xeroderma pigmentosum, complementation group G (XPG) repair gene SNP (rs17655), which revealed a statistically significant association with CHL patient survival (P=0.036). Accordingly, these data suggest that the XPG gene may be a useful predictive molecular genetic biomarker for CHL clinical outcome. The present study also provided valuable insights on the contribution of DNA repair genes in Saudi patients with CHL. To the best of our knowledge, we defined for the first time, a specific genetic pattern associated with CHL outcome was defined in the present study in Saudi patients.
