1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundGastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignancies, affected by several genetic loci in the clinical phenotype. This study aimed to determine the association between PTGER4 and PRKAA1 gene polymorphisms and the risk of GC.

methodsA total of 509 GC patients and 507 age and sex-matched healthy controls were recruited to explore the association between PTGER4 and PRKAA1 genetic polymorphisms and GC susceptibility. Logistic regression analysis was used to study the correlation between these SNPs and GC, with odd ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) as indicators. Multifactor dimensionality reduction was utilized to analyze the genetic relationships among SNPs. was conducted to predict gene expression, the impact of SNPs on gene expression, and the signaling pathways involved in PTGER4 and PRKAA1.

resultsOverall, rs10036575 in PTGER4 (OR = 0.82, p = 0.029), rs10074991 (OR = 0.82, p = 0.024) and rs13361707 (OR = 0.82, p = 0.030) in PRKAA1 were associated with susceptibility to GC. Stratification analysis revealed that the effects of these SNPs in PTGER4 and PRKAA1 on GC susceptibility were dependent on smoking and were associated with a reduced risk of adenocarcinoma (p < 0.05). Bioinformatics analysis showed an association between SNPs and corresponding gene expression (p < 0.05), and PRKAA1 may affect GC by mediating RhoA.

conclusionThis study suggests that PTGER4 and PRKAA1 SNPs might affect the susceptibility of GC, providing a new biological perspective for GC risk assessment, pathogenesis exploration, and personalized treatment.
