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

backgroundThere are several meta-analyses on the genetic relationship between the rs1695 polymorphism within the GSTP1 (glutathione S-transferase pi 1) gene and the risk of different SCC (squamous cell carcinoma) diseases, such as ESCC (oesophageal SCC), HNSCC (head and neck SCC), LSCC (lung SCC), and SSCC (skin SCC). Nevertheless, no unified conclusions have been drawn.

methodsHerein, an updated meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the probable impact of GSTP1 rs1695 on the susceptibility to different SCC diseases under six genetic models (allele, carrier, homozygote, heterozygote, dominant, and recessive). Three online databases, namely, PubMed, WOS (Web of Science), and Embase (Excerpta Medica Database), were searched.

resultsInitially, we obtained a total of 497 articles. Based on our selection criteria, we eventually included 52 case-control studies (9763 cases/15,028 controls) from 47 eligible articles. As shown in the pooling analysis, there was no difference in the risk of overall SCC disease between cases and controls [allele, P

conclusionThe rs1695 polymorphism within the GSTP1 gene is not associated with the risk of overall SCC or a specific SCC type, including ESCC, HNSCC, LSCC, and SSCC.
