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

Background: The identification of cancer-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and mutation genes is a promising approach in recognizing individuals who are at risk of developing cancer. Hence, this study was conducted to determine the association between XRCC4 c.1394G>T SNP and breast cancer development among Filipinos. Methods: Genotyping for XRCC4 c.1394G>T SNP was performed on breast cancer patients (n=103) and their age- and sex- matched clinically healthy controls (n=103) by polymerase chain reaction – restriction fragment length polymorphism. Results: Significant difference in genotype (p=0.007) and allele (p=0.003) frequencies in XRCC4 c.1394G>T was observed between the breast cancer cases and controls. Carriers of the XRCC4 c.1394 G>T genotype were observed to have significantly higher risk of developing breast cancer compared to individuals with T/T genotype (OR=2.67, 95% CI: 1.36 – 5.25). XRCC4 c.1394G>T combined with passive smoking may also significantly increase risk of breast cancer (OR=14.73; 95% CI= 9.88-18.86). Conclusion: XRCC4 c. 1394G>T may be associated with breast cancer development among Filipinos.
