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

backgroundTo investigate the correlation between growth arrest-specific transcript 5 (GAS5) gene polymorphism and the risk and prognosis of prostate cancer in Chinese Han population.

methodsSanger sequencing was used to analyze genotypes at the rs17359906 and rs1951625 loci of the GAS5 gene in 218 prostate cancer patients and 220 healthy controls. The follow-up period was from August 2016 to August 2019, and the relationships between GAS5 gene polymorphisms at the rs17359906 and rs1951625 loci and the recurrence-free survival rate of prostate cancer patients were analyzed.

resultsGAS5 A-allele carriers at the rs17359906 locus were 3.44 times more likely to develop prostate cancer than G-allele carriers (95% confidence interval (CI): 2.38-4.96, P < .001). Carriers of the GAS5 A allele at the rs1951625 locus had a 1.40-fold higher risk of prostate cancer than carriers of the G allele (95% CI: 1.05-1.86, P = .027). Plasma prostate-specific antigen (PSA), body mass index (BMI), and rs17359906 and rs1951625 loci were independent risk factors for prostate cancer. GAS5 AA genotype and A-allele carriers (GA + AA) at the rs1951625 locus were significantly correlated with Gleason scores ≤7 (P < .05). GAS5 genes rs17359906 G > A and rs1951625 G > A were associated with high plasma PSA levels. The recurrence-free survival rate of patients with prostate cancer with AA genotype at the rs17359906 locus of GAS5 (66.67%) was significantly lower than that of the GA genotype (76.47%), whereas the GG genotype was the highest (91.96%), and the difference was statistically significant (P = .002). The recurrence-free survival rate of patients with prostate cancer with the AA genotype at the rs1951625 locus of GAS5 (75.00%) was significantly lower than that of the GA genotype (81.82%), whereas the GG genotype was the highest (87.76%) with a statistically significant difference (P = .025).

conclusionGAS5 rs17359906 G > A and rs1951625 G > A are significantly associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer and a reduction in three-year relapse-free survival.
