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

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified hundreds of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with cancer risk, several of which have shown pleiotropic effects across cancers. Therefore, we performed a systematic cross-cancer pleiotropic analysis to detect the effects of GWAS-identified variants from non-lung cancers on lung cancer risk in 12,843 cases and 12,639 controls from four lung cancer GWASs. The overall association between variants in each cancer and risk of lung cancer was explored using sequential kernel association test (SKAT) analysis. For single variant analysis, we combined the result of specific study using fixed-effect meta-analysis. We performed functional exploration of significant associations based on features from public databases. To further detect the biological mechanism underlying identified observations, pathway enrichment analysis were conducted with R package "clusterProfiler." SNP-set analysis revealed the overall associations between variants of 8 cancer types and lung cancer risk. Single variant analysis identified 6 novel SNPs related to lung cancer risk after multiple correction (
