Ethnicity modifies the association between microRNA single nucleotide polymorphisms and pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia risk: a meta-analysis.

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
introductionMicroRNA (miRNA) single nucleotide polymorphisms (miRNA-SNPs) have been associated with pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, since the results of these individual studies have been inconsistent, we performed a meta-analysis to help establish a statistical significance for the association between miRNA-SNPs and pediatric ALL risk. We also analyzed whether they confer susceptibility across country-specific studies by using different genetic models.
methodsArticles published from 2001 to 2023 were collected from PubMed and Google Scholar databases. Through MetaGenyo, the association between miRNA- SNPs and pediatric ALL risk was calculated by pooled odds ratio [ORs] and 95% CI. A subgroup analysis of pooled ORs in country-specific studies was also performed.
resultsBased on the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 14 studies were analyzed to extract data on miR146 rs2910164, miR-196a2 rs11614913, miR-612 rs12803915 and mir-499 rs3746444. While the pooled data analysis did not reveal any association, a subgroup analysis demonstrated country-specific differences in allele frequencies of all the four miRNAs in various genetic models, implying ethnicity-based risk.
conclusionOur results suggested that miRNA-SNPS can still be considered as a potential risk factor to be explored in more populations.
