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
Increasing evidence has validated the essential regulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in the biological process of tumours. LncRNA PXN-AS1 has been discovered to be as a tumour suppressor in pancreatic cancer; however, its function and mechanism remain greatly unknown in glioblastoma (GBM). Our present study indicated that PXN-AS1 was highly expressed in GBM tissues and cells. Besides, the knock-down of PXN-AS1 was closely associated with the inhibitory proliferation and inducing apoptosis of GBM cells. PXN-AS1 inhibition was also found to restrain GBM tumour growth. Importantly, SOX9 functioned as a transcription factor and activated PXN-AS1 expression, and overexpressed PXN-AS1 rescued the inhibitory role of down-regulated SOX9 in GBM cell growth. Subsequently, it was discovered that PXN-AS1 activated Wnt/β-catenin pathway. DKK1 was widely known as an inhibitor gene of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, and its expression was negatively associated with PXN-AS1 and SOX9. Interestingly, we found that PXN-AS1 could recruit EZH2 to mediate the H3K27me3 level of DKK1 promoter. Restoration experiments manifested that DKK1 knock-down counteracted PXN-AS1 depletion-mediated repression in GBM cell growth. All facts pointed out that PXN-AS1 might be of importance in exploring the therapeutic strategies of GBM.
