Association between UBAC2 gene polymorphism and the risk of noise-induced hearing loss: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The purpose of this article was to investigate the association between the ubiquitin-associated domain-containing protein 2 (UBAC2) gene polymorphism and noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) and to further explore the role of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in UBAC2 in NIHL. A case control study involving 660 NIHL cases and 581 controls was conducted in this research. After genotyping by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with next-generation sequencing, the correlation between SNPs and NIHL was analyzed using logistic regression analysis. Haplotype analysis was performed by Haploview 4.1 software. Then luciferase reporter assays and siRNA were used to explore the mechanism of SNPs in UBAC2 affecting NIHL susceptibility. The correlation analysis showed that rs3825427 AA genotype, rs9517701 GG genotype, rs7999348 GG genotype, and rs2296860 AA genotype were all associated with increased risk of NIHL (P < 0.05). The haplotype AGGA (rs3825427-rs9517701-rs7999348-rs2296860) also had a higher risk of NIHL (OR = 1.314; 95% CI, 1.098-1.572; P = 0.003). The results of the luciferase reporter assays showed that the fluorescence intensity of CTCF-OE + UBAC2 WT + TK was significantly higher than that of CTCF-NC + UBAC2 WT + TK and CTCF-OE + UBAC2 MT + TK (all P < 0.01). In CTCF knockdown cells, the expression of UBAC2 was also significantly downregulated (P = 0.0038), indicating that the transcription factor CTCF positively regulated the expression of UBAC2 and the rs3825427 C allele acted as an enhancer, which can promote CTCF to bind to the promoter of UBAC2, thereby promoting transcription. UBAC2 gene polymorphism is related to NIHL susceptibility. The UBAC2 rs3825427 regulates the expression level of UBAC2 by affecting the combination of CTCF and DNA, thus affecting the susceptibility of NIHL.
