Glutathione-S-Transferase
Review in International journal of endocrinology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 16 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
Background: Promoter methylation of glutathione-S-transferase Methods: The PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and PMC databases were searched for all relevant studies from the date of inception to November 31, 2021. We compared differences in the incidence of GSTP1 promoter methylation in cfDNA between prostate cancer patients and controls. The odds ratio (OR) and hazard ratio (HR) were used as effect sizes, and the result of each effect size is expressed as a 95% confidence interval (95% CI). Results: Our meta-analysis showed that the combined sensitivity and specificity of GSTP1 promoter methylation in cfDNA for the diagnosis of prostate cancer were 0.37 (95% CI = 0.23, 0.53) and 0.97 (95% CI = 0.88, 0.99), respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) with 95% CI was 0.78 (95% CI = 0.75, 0.82). For prognostic variables, hypermethylation of GSTP1 was associated with shorter survival in PCa (HR = 2.57, 95% CI = 1.30, 5.10), with statistical significance in between-study heterogeneity ( Conclusions: The results of the meta-analysis substantiate the high specificity of promoter methylation of GSTP1 in cfDNA for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, and it may be used to more precisely evaluate the prognosis of patients with prostate cancer. It may be helpful for the early detection of prostate cancer, but it still must be combined with traditional prostate-specific antigen (PSA) or other methylated genes to accomplish this goal.
