Association Between Polymorphisms in DNA Repair Genes and Glioma Susceptibility: A Meta-Analysis of Four Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (rs3212986, rs13181, rs25487, and rs861539).
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Cases with central nervous system tumors represent a small amount of all tumors, and the diagnosis of high-grade gliomas (HGGs) is mostly difficult as they frequently show intratumoral morphological heterogeneity. Genetic factors, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), have an important role in modifying glioma susceptibility. We conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis to investigate the ERCC1 (rs3212986), ERCC2 (rs13181), XRCC1 (rs25487), and XRCC3 (rs861539) genes to see if they are any risk factors for glioma susceptibility. We identified 30 eligible studies investigating the PubMed records (up to January 2024) via a mishmash of the subsequent terms: brain tumors, glioma, glioblastoma, gene associations, SNPs, XRCC1, XRCC3, ERCC1, and ERCC2. The total number of patients was 23678 (9731 in cases (poor outcome) and 13947 in controls (good outcome)). This comprehensive meta-analysis declared a significant association between ERCC2 rs13181, XRCC1 rs25487, and the risk of glioma.
