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
Previous studies have investigated the association of the rs1805087 A/G variant of Methionine synthase gene with the susceptibility to prostate cancer (PCa). Nevertheless, the conclusions remain divergent. We performed a systemic analysis with odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) to assess Methionine synthase rs1805087 A/G variant and PCa risk. Furthermore, we utilized in silico analysis to investigate the relationship between Methionine synthase expression and the overall survival (OS) time. Totally, 10,666 PCa patients and 40,750 controls were included. We observed that Methionine synthase rs1805087 A/G variant is associated with an elevated risk of PCa (G-allele vs. A-allele: OR = 1.06, 95% CI = 1.01-1.11, P = 0.013; heterozygous model: OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.02-1.14, P = 0.009; dominant model: OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 1.02-1.14, P = 0.007). During stratified analysis, similar results were obtained in Asian populations, hospital-based, high quality studies and that with large sample size. Moreover, in silico analysis indicated the Methionine synthase expression is down-regulated in both young and old PCa subjects (P < 0.05). Compared with the normal subjects, the down-regulated expression of Methionine synthase was found in PCa cases with Gleason score 6 to 9. Our study showed that Methionine synthase rs1805087 A/G variant may be associated with susceptibility of PCa, especially in Asian populations, hospital-based studies and that with high quality and large sample size. Furthermore, Methionine synthase rs1805087 A/G variant may be related to the prognosis of PCa.
