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
Biliary tract cancer (BTC) is an aggressive type of malignant tumour. Even after radical resection, the risk of recurrence is still high, resulting in a poor prognosis. Here, we investigated the usefulness of serum miRNAs as predictive markers of recurrence and prognosis for patients with BTC after radical surgery using 66 serum samples that were collected at three time points from 22 patients with BTC who underwent radical surgery. Using microarray analysis, we successfully identified six specific miRNAs (miR-1225-3p, miR-1234-3p, miR1260b, miR-1470, miR-6834-3p, and miR-6875-5p) associated with recurrence and prognosis of BTC after radical surgery. In addition, using a combination of these miRNAs, we developed a recurrence predictive index to predict recurrence in patients with BTC after operation with high accuracy. Patients having higher index scores (≥ cut-off) had significantly worse recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) than those with lower index scores (<cut-off). Furthermore, the index was an independent factor related to RFS and OS by univariate and multivariate analyses using a Cox hazard proportional model. Overall, our results provided compelling evidence for the potential usefulness of specific serum miRNAs as effective predictive tools for recurrence and prognosis in patients with BTC who underwent radical surgery.
