Interaction between dose and susceptibility to environmental cancer: a short review.
Review in Environmental health perspectives, 1997. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Increased risk of environmentally induced cancer is associated with various types of exposures and host factors, including differences in carcinogen metabolism. Since many carcinogenic compounds require metabolic activation to enable them to react with cellular macromolecules, individual features of carcinogen metabolism may play an essential role in the development of environmental cancer. In this context, cigarette smoking has often been the main type of carcinogenic exposure examined in human studies. Increasing attention has recently been paid to the dose level at which individual susceptibility may be observed. Present studies on increased risk of smoking-related lung cancer associated with phenotypic or genotypic variation of the genes encoding for CYP1A1 or CYP2D6 enzymes are summarized. Similarly, higher risks of lung or bladder cancer seen at various levels of smoking in association with polymorphism of the glutathione S-transferase gene GSTM1 or NAT1 and NAT2 genes involved in N-acetylation are reviewed. Finally, the influence of CYP2E1, GSTM1, or the combined at-risk genotype on the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma in smokers is briefly discussed.
