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
purposeMALAT1 is recognized as an oncogenic lncRNA in various malignancies. Here, the authors aim to explore the association of MALAT1 expression and prognostic implication in tongue squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
methodsThe tongue tissues of 128 tongue SCC cases satisfying strict follow-up criteria and 28 normal cases were subjected to qRT-PCR assay for monitoring MALAT1 expression. Chi-square test was applied to explore the correlation between MALAT1 expression and clinicopathological features of tongue SCC. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to calculate survival rates. Cox proportional hazard analysis was adopted to analyze the relationship between prognostic factors and patient survival.
resultsThe expression of MALAT1 was upregulated in tongue SCC, compared to normal tongue tissues. The expression level of MALAT1 was correlated to differentiation and stage of tongue SCC, and high MALAT1 expression was associated with low disease-free survival and overall survival rates. Moreover, advanced tongue SCC patients with high MALAT1 level had lower disease-free survival and decreased overall survival rate than patients with low MALAT1 level. These results revealed that MALAT1 overexpression can be considered as a significant prognostic factor to independently predict the disease-free survival and overall survival rate of tongue SCC.
conclusionsThe expression level of MALAT1 is closely related with progression of tongue SCC. Furthermore, MALAT1 can serve as an independent biomarker for prognostic evaluation of tongue SCC.
