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
backgroundThe model of lung tumors transplacentally induced by N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) in inbred BALB/c and C57BL/6J mice was used to investigate the impact of a high sucrose-high fat (HSHF) diet on lung tumorigenesis.
methodsThe offspring was separated by gender and randomly divided into 2 subgroups in both ENU- and buffer-treated groups at the time of weaning. One subgroup was put on the standard diet and the other on the HSHF diet from weaning to the age of 24 weeks. The entire lungs went through a standard process of paraffin-embedded blocks. Every lung block was cut in serial sections but one in every five sections was saved to generate step sections that were stained by hematoxylin and eosin. The tumor histology was assessed on the step sections.
resultsAt 24-week checkpoint, a spectrum of histological changes was observed in the mice on both diets. Specifically, they presented as alveolar hyperplasia, adenomas and adenomas with nuclear dysplasia at various degrees. Those tumors were actually at different developmental stages. Lung adenocarcinomas were developed in mice on the HSHF diet. A cluster of tumor cells with wide foamy or clear or signet-ring shaped cytoplasm (fatty changes) appeared in a low frequency on the HSHF diet.
conclusionsThe observed histological changes indicated that lung tumors were developed at different times and evolved at different paces. The HSHF diet accelerated the course of tumor evolvement. Tumor cells with fatty changes might be induced by the HSHF diet.
