Association of UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28, or ABCC2 c.3972C>T genetic polymorphisms with irinotecan-induced toxicity in Asian cancer patients: Meta-analysis.

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
Effects of UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 genetic polymorphisms on irinotecan-induced severe toxicities in Asian cancer patients are inconclusive. Also, ABCC2 c.3972C>T may affect toxicity of irinotecan. The aim was to assess the aggregated risk of neutropenia or diarrhea in Asian cancer patients taking irinotecan and inherited UGT1A1*6, UGT1A1*28, or ABCC2 c.3972C>T genetic variants. A PubMed literature search for eligible studies was conducted. Odds ratios (ORs) were measured using RevMan software where p values <0.05 were statistically significant. Patients that inherited both UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 genetic variants (heterozygous: UGT1A1*1/*6 + *1/*28 and homozygous: UGT1A1*6/*6 + *28/*28) were significantly associated with increased risk of neutropenia and diarrhea compared to patients with UGT1A1*1/*1 (neutropenia: OR 2.89; 95% CI 1.97-4.23; p < 0.00001; diarrhea: OR 2.26; 95% CI 1.71-2.99; p < 0.00001). Patients carrying homozygous variants had much stronger effects in developing toxicities (neutropenia: OR 6.23; 95% CI 3.11-12.47; p < 0.00001; diarrhea: OR 3.21; 95% CI 2.13-4.85; p < 0.00001) than those with heterozygous variants. However, patients carrying the ABCC2 c.3972C>T genetic variant were not significantly associated with neutropenia (OR 1.67; 95% CI 0.98-2.84; p = 0.06) and were significantly associated with a reduction in irinotecan-induced diarrhea (OR 0.31; 95% CI 0.11-0.81; p = 0.02). Asian cancer patients should undergo screening for both UGT1A1*6 and UGT1A1*28 genetic variants to reduce substantially irinotecan-induced severe toxicities.
