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

objectiveWe aimed to provide a reference based on evidence for an individualized clinical medication of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) in osteosarcoma patients by evaluating the effect of gene polymorphism on adverse reactions of HD-MTX usage.

methodsSeveral databases were combed for research on the association between gene polymorphisms and adverse reactions to HD-MTX up to January 2023. A meta-analysis and/or descriptive analysis on the incidence of HD-MTX-related adverse reactions were conducted by using clinical studies meeting inclusion criteria.

resultsTwelve studies involving 889 patients were included. There were 8, 6, 5, and 4 studies related to MTHFR C677T, MTHFR A1298C, RFC1 G80A, and MDR1 C3435T polymorphisms, respectively. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the MTHFR C677T polymorphism was associated with G3-4 hepatotoxicity, G3-4 nephrotoxicity, G3-4 gastrointestinal toxicity, and G3-4 mucositis under the recessive genetic model (MM vs. Mm/mm). Limited research showed that MTHFR C677T was associated with G3-4 nephrotoxicity in the allelic genetic model (M vs. m). MTHFR A1298C polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk of adverse reactions to HD-MTX usage, without statistical significance. This review's descriptive analysis showed no significant correlation between the RFC1 G80A, and MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and adverse reactions of HD-MTX.

conclusionThe MTHFR C677T mutation may enhance the risk of HD-MTX adverse reactions in osteosarcoma patients. Existing studies have not found a significant correlation between the MTHFR A1298C, RFC1 G80A, and MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and adverse reactions caused by HD-MTX. Lastly, this conclusion was limited because of few studies.
