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
It is well supported by the literature that the proliferation and migration of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) are critical for the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Long intergenic noncoding RNA COX2 (lincRNA-COX2) is a regulator of inflammation and might be conducive to the progression of atherosclerosis, while its role in PAH is still unclear. This study was performed to explore the role and mechanism of lincRNA-COX2 in PASMCs proliferation and migration in an anaerobic environment. PASMCs were treated by hypoxia to construct PAH cell models. RT-PCR and western blot were recruited to evaluate the expression levels of lincRNA-COX2, miR-let-7a and STAT3. Their roles in proliferation and cell and migration of PASMCs were determined by the CCK-8 assay, wound-healing assay, and flow cytometry. In peripheral blood samples from PAH patients and hypoxic PASMCs, lincRNA-COX2 expression was enhanced. Silencing lincRNA-COX2 inhibited hypoxia-induced PASMCs proliferation by influencing the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Meanwhile, lincRNA-COX2 regulated STAT3 through miR-let-7a and its effects on hypoxic PASMCs worked through miR-let-7a/STAT3 axis. To conclude, silencing lincRNA-COX2 attenuated the development of hypoxic PASMCs. LincRNA-COX2/miR-let-7a/STAT3 axis might be considered as a novel target to treat PAH.
