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 a significant global health issue, with oxidative stress playing a pivotal role in its pathogenesis. Paraoxonase 1 (PON1), an enzyme with antioxidant properties, may modulate oxidative stress and cancer susceptibility. This study examined the association between two PON1 polymorphisms, rs662 (Q192R) and rs854560 (L55M), and their effects on GC risk and oxidative stress markers.

methodsThe study included 250 histopathologically confirmed GC patients and 210 healthy controls. PON1 polymorphisms were genotyped, and biochemical markers-including PON1 and arylesterase (ARE) activities, total antioxidant capacity (TAC), total oxidant status (TOS), and oxidative stress index (OSI)-were quantified.

resultsThe genotype frequencies of rs854560 and rs662 differed significantly between GC patients and controls. The rs854560 polymorphism was linked to GC risk in co-dominant and dominant inheritance models, while rs662 was associated in co-dominant, dominant, and recessive models. PON1 and ARE activities were significantly reduced in GC patients compared to controls (p = 0.001 and p < 0.001, respectively). TAC was higher in controls (p = 0.006), whereas TOS and OSI showed non-significant trends toward elevation in the GC group (p = 0.093 and p = 0.181, respectively). Genotype stratification revealed significant variations in PON1, ARE, TAC, TOS, and OSI levels across rs854560 and rs662 variants.

conclusionOur findings indicate that genetic polymorphisms in PON1, specifically rs662 and rs854560, influence susceptibility to gastric cancer by altering oxidative stress markers. These findings provide insights into how PON1 genetic variations affect oxidative stress and contribute to cancer risk.
