Vitamin D regulates cell viability, migration and proliferation by suppressing galectin-3 (Gal-3) gene in ovarian cancer cells.

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
Vitamin D deficiency is identified as a risk factor for the occurrence and recurrence of ovarian cancer. Galectin-3 (Gal-3) participates in many physiological and pathological processes. In present study, serum vitamin D level was detected using chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay. Gal-3 expression was examined using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), Western blot and immunocytochemistry analysis. SKOV3 cells viability was assessed by the water-soluble tetrazolium salt (WST-1) assay, the migration of SKOV3 cells was detected using transwell assay, and the proliferation of SKOV3 cells was measured by 3H-thymidine incorporation (
