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
As a type of osteoporosis (OP), male idiopathic OP (MIO) is a bone disorder that occurs in young males and is a public health problem worldwide. However, the detailed pathogenesis of MIO remains to be elucidated. In the present study, blood samples of patients with MIO, senile OP, postmenopausal OP and normal controls (NCs) were obtained for RNA sequencing. Compared with the NC group, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the three types of OP were identified. DEGs that were common among the three types of OP and the DEGs that were unique to patients with MIO were determined. Gene ontology enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analyses were conducted. MIO‑specific and OP‑specific protein‑protein interaction (PPI) networks were constructed. Compared with NCs, a total of 519, 368 and 1,472 DEGs were identified in samples from MIO, senile OP and postmenopausal OP, respectively. Tetraspanin 5 (TSPAN5) and α‑synuclein (SNCA) were unique DEGs in MIO that were not identified in the other two types of OP compared with NCs. Furthermore, the expression of carbonic anhydrase 1 (CA1) and S100 calcium‑binding protein P (S100P) in MIO was significantly different compared with senile OP, postmenopausal OP and NC samples. 'MAPK signaling pathway', 'type I diabetes mellitus' and 'hematopoietic cell lineage' were among significantly enriched pathways of DEGs in MIO. SNCA and CDC‑like kinase 1 were the hub genes in the MIO‑specific PPI network. In conclusion, the mitogen‑activated protein kinase signaling and type I diabetes mellitus pathways may be involved in bone formation; SNCA and TSPAN5 may be associated with bone resorption. These two pathways and two genes may serve a role in MIO. CA1 and S100P may regulate the process of MIO by modulation of calcification and dysregulation of calcium binding. These findings may have provided an experimental basis for elucidating the underlying mechanisms and developing potential diagnostic biomarkers of MIO.
