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
backgroundThe human epididymal secretory protein 4 (HE4) is a novel, verified biomarker for the early diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
methodsMagnetic beads were coated with capture antibodies and were used with acridinium ester labeled detection antibodies in a sandwich-type immunoassay. The patient's HE4 serum levels were measured simultaneously with the chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) kit we developed and electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) kit from Roche (Mannheim, Germany). CA125 was also detected by time-resolved fluoroimmunoassay. The diagnostic value was analyzed.
resultsThe assay demonstrated a linear range from 2.5 to 2,000 pmol/l, with an analytical sensitivity of 2.5 pmol/l. The reproducibility, recovery, and specificity of the immunoassay were demonstrated to be acceptable. Compared with the ECLIA kit from Roche in 124 serum samples (40 patients with ovarian cancer, 35 patients with benign gynecological diseases, and 49 health controls), there is a satisfied correlation coefficient of 0.875. The area under the receiver-operating curve (ROC-AUC) was 0.903 (95% CI was 0.839-0.966, P < 0.001) for HE4, 0.787 (95% CI was 0.694-0.879, P < 0.001) for CA125, and 0.914 (95% CI was 0.866-0.962, P < 0.001) for combined analysis of HE4 and CA125.
conclusionsA quantitative method (HE4-CLIA) for detecting HE4 in serum was successfully established. Preliminary clinical sample analysis showed HE4-CLIA has a certain clinical value in the screening and diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Moreover, in distinguishing benign from malignant ovarian lesions, HE4 has higher demonstrated accuracy than CA125.
