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

purposeOral cancer is the most common cancer among the Indian men and the second most common cancer among the Indian women. Such high incidence of oral cancer in India is due to consumption of tobacco in different form including smoking of cigarette. Smoke of tobacco contains different carcinogens which causes DNA damage. Such DNA damage if remain unrepaired due to faulty DNA repair system can cause mutation and eventual development of cancer. METHODOLOGY: In the present study, we aimed to check the role of smoking as well as interaction of smoking and XPC polymorphism in risk modulation of oral cancer. Total of 372 subjects including 300 healthy controls and 72 patients of oral cancers been genotyped for the XPC PAT D/I, A/C and C/T polymorphisms with PCR based or PCR-RFLP based method. Genotype frequency was analyzed by chi-square test and strength of associations by odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals.

resultsThe present study showed that compared to nonsmokers, smokers are at five times higher risk to develop oral cancer (

conclusionThis study demonstrates a possible role of smoking and gene-smoking interaction in risk enhancement of oral cancer.
