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
Cell migration is a central process that is essential for embryonic development, wound repair, inflammatory response, homeostasis and tumor metastasis. A method of genome-wide selection based on the gain-of-function has been devised to identify novel cell migration-promoting genes in cultured cells. After the introduction of the retroviral mouse brain cDNA library into NIH3T3 mouse fibroblast cells, migration-promoted cells were selected by a three-dimensional migration assay using cell culture inserts. After five rounds of enrichment, cDNAs were retrieved from the cells that passed the selection processes. Cell migration-promoting activity was confirmed by independent migration assays for the retrieved cDNAs. Multiple cell migration-promoting genes were successfully isolated by this method. The genes identified can be used to gain a systematic view of cell migration. The gain-of-function selection method described here can be combined with RNAi-mediated loss-of-function screen or selection to be a more powerful tool for the systems biology research of cell migration.
