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
Erythropoietin (EPO), binding with its receptor (EPOR), plays an important role in erythropoiesis. EPOR is reported to be expressed in various non-hematopoietic cancers, including gastric cancer. Although recombinant human EPO (rhEPO) has been widely used clinically in anemia patients, it remains controversial whether it would promote tumor progression. In this study, we used siRNA interference method to downregulate EPOR expression to investigate the function of EPO/EPOR pathway in human gastric cancer cells. We found EPOR expressed significantly higher in gastric cancer tissues, and also in most gastric cancer cell lines. RhEPO promoted gastric cancer cell proliferation, migration in AGS cells, and promoted cells from G0/G1 stage to G2/M stage, but had no regulation on AGS cell apoptosis. Downregulation of EPOR expression by siRNA interference in AGS cells resulted in no significant effects on proliferation and invasiveness of the cells, but induced apoptosis (p < 0.05). Xenografted gastric tumor model was used to explore the effect of EPOR-overexpression on gastric cancer cells in vivo. Our result showed that overexpression of EPOR enhanced tumor formation in nude mice (p < 0.01). Our results suggest that EPO/EPOR pathway promotes gastric cancer formation, proliferation, migration, and decreases apoptosis.
