Association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms of the Prostaglandin-Endoperoxide Synthase 1 and 2 genes and cell proliferative prostatic diseases in Lebanon.

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
The polymorphic genes PTGS1 and PTGS2 encode cyclooxygenases COX-1 and COX-2, respectively. Overexpression of these cyclooxygenases is linked to inflammation and neoplasms. This study investigated the potential association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) -842A>G (rs10306114) of the PTGS1 gene and SNP-765G>C (rs20417) of the PTGS2 gene with prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Blood leucocyte DNA from 56 healthy individuals, 61 individuals with PCa, and 51 individuals with BPH were genotyped using the PCR-RFLP method. Associations were inferred by calculating odds ratios (OR) and relative risks (RR) of genotype distributions and allele frequencies. The genotypes for both SNPs were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for all groups. No significant association was observed between the A or G alleles or the AA, AG, or GG genotypes of the SNP-842A>G of the PTGS1 gene and prostatic diseases. However, the C allele of SNP-765G>C of the PTGS2 gene was significantly associated with an increased risk of BPH (OR = 2.30,
