Association between miR-196a-2 Gene Polymorphism and Ovarian Cancer Prognosis in Egyptian Females.
Article in Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention : APJCP, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundOvarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. Unfortunately, early detection tests are relatively lacking. Diagnosis in the late stages of the disease carries a poor prognosis.
objectiveTo evaluate the relationship between miR-196a-2 rs11614913 polymorphism and ovarian cancer risk and prognosis in Egyptian females.
methodsIn this case-control study, the participants were classified into 2 groups. Group A is the control group which included 50 healthy females. Group B included 50 patients newly diagnosed with ovarian carcinoma confirmed by histopathological analysis. Immunohistochemistry for P53 and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) for miR-196a-2 genotypes detection were performed. Results: There was a statistically significant difference among ovarian cancer cases and controls regarding genotypes (P = 0.003). However, the distribution of the T and C alleles in both studied groups showed no significant difference (P = 0.17). There was a statistically significant increase of CA 125 levels among CT and CC genotypes carriers of ovarian cancer cases (p = 0.04). Besides, there was a statistically significant correlation between miR-196a-2 polymorphism and each of tumor grade (P <0.001), p53 immunohistochemical expression (P= 0.002), and Figo classification (P <0.001).
conclusionThere was a statistically significant increase of CA 125 levels among C allele carriers of ovarian cancer cases. Besides, there was a statistically significant association between the miR-196a-2 polymorphism and each of tumor grade, p53 immunohistochemical expression, and Figo classification. So, miR-196a-2 polymorphism can be a possible prognostic factor in ovarian cancer.
