Vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms and risk of breast cancer in Iranian women.
Article in Annals of medicine and surgery (2012), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
objectivesVitamin D deficiency is a driving force of common cancers like breast cancer. Vitamin D receptor (VDR) can play a tumor suppressor role by helping the precise function of vitamin D in cells such as modulation TGF-β signaling pathway. This study aimed to investigate the association of VDR gene variants and susceptibility to breast cancer in Iranian women.
methodsGenomic DNAs were isolated from blood samples of 161 women with breast cancer and 150 healthy women. After amplification of five positions of VDR gene, the prepared amplicons were digested with
resultsSubsequently, the digested products were electrophoresed on the 1.5% agarose gel. Odds ratios (ORs) for breast cancer were calculated for genotypes and estimated haplotypes. Binary logistic regression analysis showed
