Association between long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) GAS5 polymorphism rs145204276 and cancer risk.
Article in The Journal of international medical research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveThe long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) growth arrest‑specific transcript 5 (GAS5) plays an important role in various tumors, and an increasing number of studies have explored the association of the GAS5 rs145204276 polymorphism with cancer risk with inconclusive results.
methodsPubMed, Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane databases, and Web of Science were searched, and nine studies involving 6107 cases and 7909 controls were deemed eligible. Odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the relationship between rs145204276 and cancer risk in six genetic models.
resultsThe pooled results suggest that the variant allele del was not associated with overall cancer risk. However, the subgroup analysis showed that allele del was significantly associated with a 22% decreased risk of gastrointestinal cancer (OR = 0.78, 95% CI: 0.72-0.85). Both sensitivity analyses and trial sequential analyses (TSA) demonstrated that the subgroup results were reliable and robust. Moreover, False-Positive Report Probability (FPRP) analysis indicated that the results had true significant correlations.
conclusionThese findings provide evidence that the GAS5 rs145204276 polymorphism is associated with the susceptibility to gastrointestinal cancer. Further studies with different ethnicities and larger sample sizes are warranted to confirm these results.
