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

objective: The association between angiotensin II type 1 receptor ( AGTR1) gene A1166C polymorphism and cancer risk has been investigated in many studies. However, the results have been inconclusive. A meta-analysis was performed to obtain a more precise estimation of the relationship.

methods: The PubMed and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases were searched for published literature. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strengths of association.

results: Ten studies, including 1553 patients and 1904 controls, were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, there were no significant associations between the AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism and cancer risk in the general population (CC vs AA: OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.50-2.37; AC vs AA: OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 0.81-2.91; dominant model: OR = 1.46, 95% CI = 0.77-2.79; recessive model: OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 0.84-1.49). In a subgroup analysis by nationality and cancer type, the results also showed no association between this polymorphism and cancer risk.

conclusions: This meta-analysis demonstrated that the AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism does not appear to be related to the risk of cancer.
