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

Colorectal polyps (CPs) are recognized precursors of colorectal cancer (CRC), which remains a major global public health challenge, ranking third in incidence and second in cancer-related mortality worldwide. This study investigated the associations of hypertension and the zinc finger MIZ-type containing 1 antisense RNA 1 (ZMIZ1-AS1) variant (rs704017) with the odds of CP among participants in the Taiwan Biobank (TWB). Data from the TWB (2008-2015) were linked to the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD, 1998-2015), yielding 8970 participants aged 30-70 years. Multiple logistic regression models were used to estimate adjusted odds ratios (aORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for CPs according to hypertension status and rs704017 genotype. The distribution of ZMIZ1-AS1 rs704017 genotypes differed significantly between CP cases and controls (p = 0.001). Individuals carrying the rs704017 AG + GG genotype had higher odds of CPs than those with the AA genotype (aOR = 1.39, 95% CI: 1.16-1.66). Hypertension alone was not significantly associated with CP odds; however, a significant interaction was observed between hypertension and rs704017 (p = 0.029). Compared with non-hypertensive individuals with the AA genotype, the aOR was 1.62 (95% CI, 1.29-2.03) for non-hypertensive individuals with AG + GG, 1.45 (95% CI, 1.09-1.95) for hypertensive individuals with AA, and 1.56 (95% CI, 1.16-2.08) for hypertensive individuals with AG + GG. In conclusion, the ZMIZ1-AS1 rs704017 AG + GG genotype was independently associated with increased odds of CP, whereas hypertension alone was not. However, the association between the rs704017 variant and CP appeared stronger among individuals with hypertension, suggesting a potential interaction between genetic susceptibility and hypertension.
