Association between GPC2 polymorphisms and neuroblastoma risk in Chinese children.
Article in Journal of clinical laboratory analysis, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
backgroundThe cell surface glycoprotein glypican 2 (GPC2) has been shown to increase susceptibility to neuroblastoma, which is the most common malignancy in children. However, associations between single nucleotide polymorphism(s) of GPC2 and neuroblastoma risk remain unclarified.
methodsWe conducted a case-control study to investigate two GPC2 polymorphisms (rs1918353 G>A and rs7799441 C>T) in 473 healthy controls and 402 pediatric patients with neuroblastoma. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping was conducted on the samples by the TaqMan technique, and the data were subsequently analyzed by the t test, chi-squared test, and logistic regression model. In addition, we further performed stratification analysis by age, sex, tumor site of origin, or clinical stage to control confounding factors.
resultsAccording to the data of dominant models (GA/AA vs. GG: adjusted OR = 0.99, 95% CI = 0.76-1.29, p = 0.943; CT/TT vs. CC: adjusted OR = 0.91, 95% CI = 0.70-1.19, p = 0.498) or other comparisons, as well as the conjoint analysis (adjusted OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 0.93-1.59, p = 0.152), we unfortunately proved that the analysis of single or multiple loci did not support any significant association of GPC2 polymorphisms with susceptibility to neuroblastoma.
conclusionGPC2 polymorphisms (rs1918353 G>A and rs7799441 C>T) are unable to statistically affect neuroblastoma risk in Chinese children. Therefore, more samples, especially from patients of various ethnic backgrounds, are required to increase the sample size and verify the effect of GPC2 polymorphisms on neuroblastoma risk in the presence of ethnic factor.
