Association between CYP17A1 rs743572 polymorphism and cancer risk: A meta-analysis.
Synthesis in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 role of the CYP17A1 gene's rs743572 polymorphism in cancer susceptibility has been a subject of extensive investigation, yet existing evidence remains inconclusive. In this meta-analysis, we systematically reviewed and synthesized data from 29 studies to assess the CYP17A1 rs743572 polymorphism's relationship with cancer susceptibility. We strictly searched on EMBASE, PubMed, and Web of Science databases and explored rs743572 polymorphism's association with cancer risks according to search strategy, enrolling 29 studies (13,767 cases and 17,441 controls). rs743572 was markedly related to enhanced cancer susceptibility risk; FPRP and TSA analyses were employed for confirmation. According to cancer type-based stratified analyses, rs743572 exhibited a notable association with bladder cancer, breast cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and hepatocellular cancer. In conclusion, systematic meta-analysis suggests a significant role for the rs743572 polymorphism in cancer pathogenesis, with particular prominence observed in bladder cancer, breast cancer, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and hepatocellular cancer.
