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
A diabetic nonhealing wound causes heavy economic burden and compromised quality of life in patients. The human dermal fibroblast (HDF), which is an important kind of effector cell in the wound healing process, represents different biological behaviors in the normal and diabetic skins. Given this, we attempt to explore functional changes in diabetic skin-derived HDFs and try to find out the "hub" genes that modulate diabetic HDFs and may be the potential therapeutic targets of diabetic wound healing. We searched the GEO database for related miRNA (GSE68185, GSE84971) and mRNA (GSE49566, GSE78891) profiles. After eliminating batch effects and identifying differentially expressed genes (DEGs), we applied enrichment analyses and found that 3 miRNAs and 30 mRNAs were differentially expressed in diabetic HDFs. Enrichment analyses showed that these genes are closely related to wound healing, for example, extracellular matrix (ECM) organization, angiogenesis, cell proliferation, and migration. Subsequently, we constructed the gene correlation network of DEGs to identify hub genes by merging the protein-protein interaction network, weighted gene coexpression network, and predicted miRNA-mRNA regulatory network. Based on the gene correlation network, we identified the top 3 hub genes: miR-181a-5p, POSTN, and CDH11. Among these, POSTN is a predicted target of miR-181a-5p and is supposed to work together with CDH11 as a functional group. Finally, we verified the expression pattern of the hub genes by in vitro quantification experiments in glucose-cultured HDFs. Our study suggested that miR-181a-5p possibly plays a key role in modulation of HDF behaviors during the diabetic state. However, the effects and mechanisms of miR-181a-5p in high glucose-cultured HDFs remain to be explored in the future.
