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

Ovarian cancer is one of the most common types of cancer in women. The repair system via homologous recombination repairs double-strand breaks (DSB) of DNA, which are the most mortal for cell, out of all DNA damages. The genes, which encode the double-strand break repairing proteins, are highly polymorphic and, taking into account the significance of the repaired defects for cancer development, it seems important to learn the role of the polymorphisms in ovarian cancer development. The aim of the study was to determine the relationship between DNA repair genes via homologous recombination (HR) and modulation of the risk of ovarian cancer. The following polymorphisms were analysed: XRCC3-Thr241Met (rs861539), XRCC2--41657C/T (rs718282), XRCC2-Arg188His (rs3218536), BRCA1-Q356R (rs1799950) and RAD51-135 G/C (rs1801320). The study group included 600 patients with ovarian cancer and 600 healthy controls. The PCR-RFLP (PCR-based restriction fragment length polymorphism) technique was applied for polymorphism analysis. Allele XRCC3-241Met (OR 0.85, 95%CI 0.72-0.99, p < 0.045), XRCC2-41657 T (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.42-1.96, p < .0001), BRCA1-356R (OR 1.61; % CI 1.37-1.90, p < .0001) and RAD51-135C (OR 5.16; 95% CI 4.29-6.20, p < .0001) strongly correlated with the neoplastic disease. No relationship was observed between the studied polymorphisms and the cancer progression stage according to FIGO classification. The results indicate that polymorphisms of DNA repair genes via homologous recombination may be associated with the incidence of ovarian cancer. Further research on larger groups is warranted to determine the influence of above-mentioned genetic variants on ovarian cancer risk.
