Association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism rs2228570 with Lumbar Disc Degeneration: A Case-Control Study and Meta-Analysis.
Article in Journal of pain research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
objectiveTo examine the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2228570, rs731236, rs7975232, and rs1544410 and lumbar disc degeneration (LDD) predisposition.
methodsA search strategy was carried out, and the data were extracted after being chosen by the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Pooled odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated to assess the association between the aforementioned SNPs and LDD under allelic, dominant, recessive, heterozygous, and homozygous genetic models. In addition, a case-control study involving 46 LDD cases and 45 controls was also performed in the analysis to verify the result.
resultsA total of 17 studies were included in this meta-analysis. The pooled results did not show any association between vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms and LDD. But, interestingly, in subgroup analysis, the rs2228570 polymorphism was associated with LDD under the allelic (OR = 0.70, 95% CI = 0.56-0.87, p = 0.002), recessive (OR = 0.60, 95% CI = 0.43-0.84, p = 0.003), and homozygous (OR = 0.47, 95% CI= 0.28-0.79, p = 0.004) genetic models in the Asian population. SNPs rs731236 and rs7975232 still did not show any obvious association. We obtained a similar result from the case-control study: rs2228570 had an obvious relationship with LDD under allelic and homozygous genetic models. At the same time, we found that rs2228570 was also associated with the degree of low back pain (visual analogue scale, VAS score) in LDD population.
conclusionSNP rs2228570 was significantly associated with LDD predisposition and the degree of low back pain in the Asian population.
