Genetic Polymorphisms in Glutathione S-Transferase (GST) Gene and Their Correlation with Toxicity of Chemotherapy in Breast Cancer Patients.

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
backgroundGlutathione S-Transferase (GST) is a family of phase II metabolizing enzymes contribute to detoxification and elimination of variety of endogenous as well as exogenous xenobiotics including chemotherapeutic agents. The comprehensive knowledge on the impact of genetic polymorphisms in GST) enzyme coding gene will help to understand the clinical outcomes in breast cancer patients treated with either Adriamycin or paclitaxel or combination of both. In this study we attempted to assess the genetic polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTT1, GSTP1 and their association with Adriamycin and Paclitaxel induced toxicity reactions in breast cancer patients.
methodsTwo hundred BC patients receiving Adriamycin and Paclitaxel chemotherapy were enrolled in this study and chemotherapy induced hematological and non-hematological toxicity reactions were noted. The polymorphisms in GSTM1, GSTP1 and GSTT1 gene were studied by PCR and RFLP analysis.
resultsAfter the univariate analysis of the genetic polymorphisms of GSTM1, GSTP1 and GSTT1 showed that GSTT1 null genotype showed significant association with neutropenia (OR=2.84, 95% CI: 1.06-7.56; p=0.036) in breast cancer patients treated with Adriamycin and GSTT1 null genotype in patients with >1 CINV toxicity confirmed significant correlation (OR=3.75, 95% CI: 1.46-9.59; p=0.005). The genetic polymorphisms of GSTP1 (exon 5) A/G heterozygous genotype was significant in grade >1 toxicity reactions of mucositis (OR=3.22, 95% CI: 1.06-9.71; p=0.037) in breast cancer patients administered with Paclitaxel chemotherapy.
conclusionThe findings obtained from this study proposed significant involvement of GSTT1-null genotype in hematological neutropenia toxicity in response to Adriamycin and GSTM1-null genotype showed negative association with non-hematological toxicity (bodyache) in response to Paclitaxel.
