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

The association between TGF-β1 rs1800469 polymorphism and the risk of periodontitis was controversial and inconclusive. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the association between the TGF-β1 rs1800469 polymorphism and periodontitis risk. The electronic databases PubMed, EMBASE, and Web of Science were searched for studies to include in the present meta-analysis. Odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to assess the strength of association between the TGF-β1 rs1800469 polymorphism and periodontitis risk. A total of 8 publications involving 923 cases and 892 controls met the inclusion criteria and were ultimately analyzed. In this meta-analysis, a significant association was detected between TGF-β1 rs1800469 polymorphism and periodontitis risk (OR=1.21; 95% CI, 1.05-1.39; P=0.008). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, the significant association was only found among Asians (OR=1.23; 95% CI, 1.05-1.44; P=0.01), while no significant association was found among Caucasians (OR=1.16; 95% CI, 0.90-1.49; P=0.25). In the subgroup analysis by type and periodontitis, the significant association was only found among CP patients (OR=1.18; 95% CI, 1.02-1.37; P=0.03), while no significant association was found among AP patients (OR=1.27; 95% CI, 0.98-1.65; P=0.07). In addition, no significant association was found among non-smokers (OR=1.28; 95% CI, 0.93-1.76; P=0.13). In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggests that the TGF-β1 rs1800469 polymorphism is associated with periodontitis risk. Further studies analyzing gene-gene and gene-environment interactions are required.
