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
There is increasing evidence that microRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in tumor progression and development by targeting different genes, including gastric cancer (GC). However, the role of miR-16 in GC is so far unclear. Herein, we examined the function and potential mechanism of miR-16 in GC. Reverse transcription-quantitative PCR found that miR-16 expression was prominently lower in GC tissues while SALL4 expression was frequently higher than normal tissues. Re-expression of miR-16 could suppress GC cell proliferation and migration by MTT and Transwell assay. We confirmed that miR-16 directly targeted SALL4 in regulating GC by luciferase assay. Knockdown of SALL4 inhibited cell proliferation and migration. Furthermore, SALL4 could counteract the inhibition-effect of miR-16 in GC. In conclusion, for the the first time we demonstrated that miR-16 played inhibitory effect through targeting SALL4 in GC cell proliferation and migration. Our study revealed that miR-16/SALL4 axis was critical in regulating the GC development, indicating a new prospect to regulate GC cell progression and development.
