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
objectiveTo explore the expression and clinical significance of Gal-3 and NFκB pathway related factors in epithelial ovarian carcinoma cells.
methods99 histologic specimens of epithelial ovarian cancer and 20 normal ovarian histologic specimens were collected, and the expressions of Gal-3, IκB and p65 were detected by immunohistochemistry. Their relationship with clinical characteristics was analyzed.
resultsThe expression of Gal-3 and p65 was negatively correlated with the overall survival rate (P<0.05), while the expression of IκB was positively correlated with the overall survival rate (P<0.05). Expression of Gal-3, p65 and IκB were found associated with EOC platinum resistance (P<0.05), and expression of Gal-3 and p65 correlated with pathologic grading (P<0.05). IκB and Gal-3 were associated with the recurrence of EOC (P<0.05). IκB may be related to clinical stage (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis results showed that abnormal expression of Gal-3 may be an independent prognostic risk factors for the drug resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy (95% CI=5.336~34.112, P<0.05). The expression of Gal-3, p65, and IκB can be clinical immunohistochemical indicators that determine the prognosis of EOC, but the amount of Gal-3 expression was related to the epithelial ovarian cancer's pathologic type and overall survival, which suggested that Gal-3 can be used as a prognostic factor in epithelial ovarian cancer.
conclusionTargeted therapy of Gal-3 may become an effective potential new method against epithelial ovarian cancer.
