Impact of genetic variants in IL-2RA and IL-2RB on breast cancer risk in Chinese Han women.
Article in Biochemical genetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
The expression of IL-2RA and IL-2RB was correlated with breast cancer (BC) progression. However, there is no literature investigating the association of IL-2RA and IL-2RB polymorphisms with BC predisposition among Chinese Han Women. Seven SNPs in IL-2RA and IL-2RB were genotyped by Agena MassARRAY platform among 553 BC patients and 550 healthy controls. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) adjusted for age were calculated for the effect of IL-2RA and IL-2RB variants on BC susceptibility. IL-2RA rs12722498 was a protective factor for BC occurrence (OR = 0.70, p = 0.019), especially in subjects with age ≤ 52 years (OR = 0.55, p = 0.004). IL-2RA rs12569923 (OR = 9.07, p = 0.033), IL-2RB rs2281089 (OR = 0.67, p = 0.043) and rs9607418 (OR = 0.59, p = 0.012) were related to the incidence of estrogen receptor positive (ER +) BC. IL-2RB rs3218264 (OR = 1.38, p = 0.010) and rs9607418 (OR = 0.56, p = 0.009) were associated with the risk of developing progesterone receptor positive (PR +) BC. Rs2281089 (OR = 1.54, p = 0.012) and rs1573673 (OR = 0.72, p = 0.035) were correlated to Ki-67 level. Moreover, IL-2RB rs2281089 (OR = 0.72, p = 0.022) showed a reduced risk of BC metastasis, and IL-2RA rs12722498 (OR = 0.54, p = 0.030) had a lower frequency in BC patients with tumor size > 2 cm. Our study identified the potential effect of genetic variations in IL-2RA and IL-2RB on BC susceptibility and/or BC clinicopathologic indicators among Chinese Han Women.
