Antioxidants-related nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 gene variants associated with HBV-related liver disease.
Article in Cancer cell international, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundAccumulating evidence demonstrated that nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) expression plays a crucial role in the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, research on the effect of NRF2 genetic polymorphism on the development of chronic hepatitis B (CHB), HBV-related liver cirrhosis (LC) and HCC is still missing.
methodsA total of 673 individuals were included in the study and classified into four groups: 110 CHB cases, 86 LC cases, 260 HCC cases, and 217 healthy controls. The polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and DNA sequencing method were used to detect rs6721961 and rs6726395 polymorphisms.
resultsPatients carrying the T allele in rs6721961 were at a higher risk of HCC than individuals with the G allele compared to CHB patients (OR = 1.561, 95%CI: 1.003-2.430, P = 0.048). The statistically significant differences were also found in the rs6721961 GT genotype (OR = 2.298, 95% CI: 1.282-4.119, P = 0.005) and dominant model (OR = 2.039, 95% CI: 1.184-0.510, P = 0.010). Subgroup analysis also detected a significant association between the rs6721961 T allele and the development of HCC in older subjects (≥ 50 years) (OR = 2.148, 95% CI: 1.208-3.818, P = 0.009). Statistical analysis results indicated that subjects carrying haplotype G-A had a lower risk of HCC (OR = 0.700, 95% CI: 0.508-0.965, P = 0.028).
conclusionsFor the first time, our findings provide evidence that the NRF2 gene rs6721961 variation is a potential genetic marker of susceptibility to HCC.
