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
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a malignant subtype of breast cancer with the absence of targeted therapy, resulting in poor prognosis in patients. Chemotherapy remains the mainstay of treatment for TNBC; however, development of drug resistance is the main obstacle for successful treatments. In recent years, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has been implicated in multiple biological functions in various diseases, particularly cancers. Accumulating evidence suggested that lncRNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) expression is dysregulated in many human cancers and thus is a useful prognostic marker for cancer patients. Nevertheless, the mechanism of how NEAT1 confers drug resistance in TNBC is still largely unknown. We performed lncRNA profiling by the LncRNA Profiler qPCR Array Kit in normal control (NC) and breast cancers (BC) blood samples and further validated in a larger cohort of samples by qRT-PCR. Gene expression level and localization were investigated by qRT-PCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining. Flow cytometric analysis was carried out to detect cancer stem cells. Functional studies were performed both in vitro and in vivo xenograft model. Among 90 lncRNAs, NEAT1 was highly expressed in the blood samples of breast cancer patients than in NC. In particular, the expression of NEAT1 was higher in TNBC tissues than other subgroups. Functional studies revealed that NEAT1 conferred oncogenic role by regulating apoptosis and cell cycle progression in TNBC cells. We identified that knockdown of NEAT1 sensitized cells to chemotherapy, indicating the involvement in chemoresistance. Importantly, shNEAT1 reduced stem cell populations such as CD44+/CD24-, ALDH+, and SOX2+, implicating that NEAT1 was closely related to cancer stemness in TNBC. Our data highlighted the roles of NEAT1 chemoresistance and cancer stemness, suggesting that it could be used as a new clinical therapeutic target for treating TNBC patients especially those with drug resistance.
