Umbrella Review on Associations Between Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and Lung Cancer Risk.
Review in Frontiers in molecular biosciences, 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
The aim is to comprehensively and accurately assess potential relationships between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and lung cancer (LC) risk by summarizing the evidence in systematic reviews and meta-analyses. This umbrella review was registered with the PROSPERO international prospective register of systematic reviews under registration number CRD42020204685. The PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase databases were searched to identify eligible systematic reviews and meta-analyses from inception to August 14, 2020. The evaluation of cumulative evidence was conducted for associations with nominally statistical significance based on the Venice criteria and false positive report probability (FPRP). This umbrella review finally included 120 articles of a total of 190 SNP. The median number of studies and sample size included in the meta-analyses were five (range, 3-52) and 4 389 (range, 354-256 490), respectively. A total of 85 SNP (in 218 genetic models) were nominally statistically associated with LC risk. Based on the Venice criteria and FPRP, 13 SNP (in 22 genetic models), 47 SNP (in 99 genetic models), and 55 SNP (in 94 genetic models) had strong, moderate, and weak cumulative evidence of associations with LC risk, respectively. In conclusion, this umbrella review indicated that only 13 SNP (of 11 genes and one miRNA) were strongly correlated to LC risk. These findings can serve as a general and helpful reference for further genetic studies.
