1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Kidney is an important organ for ketone body metabolism. However, the role of abnormal ketone metabolism and its possible function in tumorigenesis of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) have not yet been elucidated. Three differentially expressed key enzymes involved in ketone body metabolism, ACAT1, BDH2, and HMGCL, were screened out between ccRCC and normal kidney tissues using the GEO and TCGA databases.We confirmed that the transcription and protein expression of ACAT1, BDH2, and HMGCL were significantly lower in ccRCC by real-time RT-PCR and IHC assays. Those patients with lower expression of these three genes have a worse outcome. In addition, we demonstrated that ectopic expression of each of these genes inhibited the proliferation of ccRCC cells. The overexpressed
