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
TFIIB and BRF are general transcription factors (GTFs) for eukaryotic RNA polymerases II and III, respectively, and have important functions in transcriptional initiation. In this study, the third type of TFIIB-related protein, pBrp, found in plant lineages was characterized in the red alga Cyanidioschyzon merolae. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis revealed that CmpBrp specifically occupied the rDNA promoter region in vivo, and the occupancy was proportional to de novo 18S rRNA synthesis. Consistently, CmpBrp and CmTBP cooperatively bound the rDNA promoter region in vitro, and the binding site was identified at a proximal downstream region of the transcription start point. alpha-Amanitin-resistant transcription from the rDNA promoter in crude cell lysate was severely inhibited by the CmpBrp antibody and was also inhibited when DNA template with a mutated CmpBrp-CmTBP binding site was used. CmpBrp was shown to co-immunoprecipitate and co-localize with the RNA polymerase I subunit, CmRPA190, in the cell. Thus, together with comparative studies of Arabidopsis pBrp, we concluded that pBrp is a GTF for RNA polymerase I in plant cells.
