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

Many studies reported that microRNA (miR)-146a rs2910164 could influence the risk of digestive system cancer (DSC). The purpose of this meta-analysis was to assess a possible effectof rs2910164 C to G variant in miR-146a gene and the smoking status with risk of DSC. The EMBASE, PubMed and CBM databases were searched to retrieve eligible papers up to January 20, 2025. Finally, 11 independent case-control studies involving 17,484 subjects were included. The association of rs2910164 polymorphism and tobacco using with DSC susceptibility was evaluated. In this pooled-analysis, we found significant difference in DSC risk between tobacco users and non-tobacco users who carried rs2910164 CC/CG genotypes (OR = 1.39, 95% CI = 1.05–1.84). In addition, there was significant difference between rs2910164 polymorphism (dominant model) and DSC susceptibility in both non-tobacco (OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.06–1.33) and tobacco users (OR = 1.13, 95%CI = 1.01–1.26). When stratified analyses were conducted by different type of DSC, we found significant difference in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) risk between tobacco users and non-tobacco users who carried rs2910164 CC/CG genotypes (OR = 2.33, 95% CI = 1.55–3.50). We also found significant difference between rs2910164 (dominant model) and gastric carcinoma (GC) susceptibility in both non-tobacco (OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.02–1.58). In summary, the current pooled-analysis highlights that tobacco consumption significantly increases the DSC development in rs2910164 CC/CG genotypes.
