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
Cytosine deaminase-uracil phosphoribosyl transferase (CD-UPRT) fusion gene is known to exhibit therapeutic effect by inducing apoptosis in vitro. However, bystander effects of 5-flurocytosine (5-FC)/CD-UPRT and the molecular mechanism for apoptosis are yet to be established. In the present study, we have generated BHK21 cell line expressing both CD-UPRT and green fluorescent protein (GFP) from two separate transcripts, where GFP was used as a noninvasive probe to monitor the therapeutic effect of CD-UPRT. Enzyme activity of CD-UPRT in the stable cell line was measured by the reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography analysis. Inhibition of cell growth and strong bystander effects of 5-FC/CD-UPRT were established, whereas characteristic surface morphology of apoptotic cell death was identified by AFM analysis. Involvement of various apoptotic signaling genes using semi-quantitative RT-PCR has been explored to substantiate the potential application of 5-FC/CD-UPRT suicide gene in therapy.
