Investigation of the DNMT3B -579 G>T Promoter Polymorphism in Patients with Colorectal Cancer in an Azerbaijani Population.

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
objectiveThe main aim of the present study was to determine the clinical significance of the DNA methyltransferase 3B (DNMT3B) gene -579 G>T polymorphism in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients.
methodsA total of 140 patients with CRC and 164 healthy individuals were included in the study. According to the manufacturer's instructions, DNA was isolated from blood, and genotypes were determined on agarose gel by the PCR-RFLP method. Genotype confirmation was performed using Sanger sequencing in randomly selected samples.
resultsWhen comparing the case and control groups, heterozygous GT (OR=0.53; 95% CI=0.32-0.88), under the dominant model (OR=0.53; 95% CI=0.33-0.87), and the mutant T allele (OR=0.71; 95% CI=0.51-0.98) were statistically associated with a reduced risk of CRC. However, when the age, pathological tumor grade and stage, smoking habit, and alcohol consumption were compared, no significant relationship was determined (P>0.05). Furthermore, among males, heterozygous GT was associated with a reduced risk of CRC (OR=0.40; 95% CI=0.19-0.84).
conclusionOur study highlighted that the -579 G>T polymorphism of the DNMT3B gene plays a protective role against CRC development.
