Association of CCL4 rs10491121 and rs1634507 gene polymorphisms with cancer susceptibility: trial sequential analysis and meta-analysis.
Synthesis in Frontiers in oncology, 2023. 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
Background: Although numerous case-control studies have explored the association between CC cytokine ligand-4 (CCL4) expression and cancer susceptibility, their results have been conflicting. This study aimed to determine the still-unknown connection of CCL4 rs10491121 and rs163450 polymorphisms with cancer susceptibility. Methods: Several databases, such as Web of Science, PubMed, and EMBASE, were searched for papers published since the creation of the database until November 2, 2022. Using RevMan 5.4 and StataMP 17 softwares, meta-analysis and subgroup analysis were performed after article screening and data extraction. For sensitivity analyses, one-by-one exclusion method was used, and then, the comprehensive effect was estimated and compared with that before exclusion. Trial sequential analysis (TSA)was performed using TSA 0.9.5.10 beta software. Results: Seven case-control studies encompassing 3559 cases and 4231 controls were included. The Conclusion: For rs10491121, we identified an association between the G allele and increased cancer risk in the Chinese population. For rs1634507, the G allele was not found to be associated with reduced risk of oral cancer and increased risk of other cancers studied by us.
