Review in Archives of medical science : AMS, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

introductionIt is reported that there is a close association between interleukin-1β (IL-1β) gene polymorphisms and breast cancer risk. However, the results remain controversial. MATERIAL AND

methodsEligible published articles were searched in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases up to June 2018. Odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were used to identify potential links between IL-1β genetic polymorphisms and the risk of breast cancer.

resultsFrom our results, we found that three common polymorphisms in IL-1β (rs16944, rs1143634, rs1143627) had no significant associations with breast cancer risk in all genetic models. Based on the analysis from ethnic subgroups, there was a higher risk of breast cancer for rs16944 polymorphism in the recessive model and heterozygous model among Asians (TT vs. CC+CT: 1.229, 95% CI: 1.063-1.422,

conclusionsThe rs16944 and rs1143627 polymorphisms are significantly associated with the risk of breast cancer only in Asian people and in post-menopausal women respectively.
