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
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the leading cause of cancer-associated deaths, worldwide, and its prognosis is unfavorable. The aim of this study was to detect serum miR-101 levels in NSCLC patients and investigate its potential diagnostic and prognostic value. A total of 93 patients with NSCLC, 40 cases with various benign lung disease, and 55 healthy volunteers, were enrolled. Quantitative RT-PCR was performed to determine relative serum miR-101 levels in our participants. Decreased serum miR-101 expression was observed in patients with NSCLC and was closely associated with aggressive clinical characteristics. In addition, a significant increase in serum miR-101 levels was found in 36 NSCLC cases after tumor resection. Moreover, receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that serum miR-101 was an effective indicator for NSCLC diagnosis. Furthermore, Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis revealed that low serum miR-101 expression predicted poor overall survival and disease-free survival. Finally, multivariate analysis confirmed serum miR-101 expression was an independent prognostic factor for NSCLC patients. In conclusion, serum miR-101 might serve as a potential biomarker for detection and prognosis evaluation of NSCLC.
