Association of A1AT genetic polymorphism and NSCLC: a case- control study in Egyptian population.
Article in BMC medical genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundLung cancer mortality is higher than other forms of cancer. Genetic tendencies in cancer patients have long been known. Given the link between A1ATD and numerous lung disorders, it is worth investigating if this genetic trait is linked to a higher risk of developing LC, as the lung is the most afflicted organ in individuals with severe A1ATD. This study is intended to investigate the possible association between AAT rs17580 and rs8004738 gene polymorphisms and susceptibility to non-small cell lung cancer for early prediction in Egyptians.
methodsA case-control study was performed on 124 NSCLC cases and 124 healthy controls from 2021 to 2022 in the oncology center of Mansoura University. Peripheral blood was used to obtain genomic DNA. ARMS-PCR was used to genotype SNPs and other chemical parameters. Windows SPSS Statistics was used to review, encode, and tabulate the acquired data.
resultsA molecular study for A1AT rs17580 and rs8004738 genotypes showed that NSCLC cases were significantly associated with a higher proportion of mutant S (T) and mutant Z (A) alleles (p = 0.042, 0.041, respectively). Different A1AT genotypes (MS, MZ, SS, SZ, and ZZ) showed no significant association with NSCLC or NLR.
conclusionS and Z alleles might have significant impacts on NSCLC risk and can be useful for detecting and protecting individuals who may be vulnerable to carcinogens. Further research with larger sample sizes is needed to confirm the current findings.
