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
Prostate cancer (PCa) is considered to be one of the most common tumors in men. Calcium-binding and coiled-coil domain 2 (CALCOCO2) is a known important xenophagy receptor, which mediates intracellular bacterial degradation. To the best of the authors' knowledge, the present study is the first to demonstrate that CALCOCO2 functions as an oncogene in PCa. The results of the current study indicated that CALCOCO2 knockdown suppressed cell proliferation and colony formation, whereas it promoted apoptosis of PCa cells. In addition, knockdown of CALCOCO2 in PCa cells reduced cyclin-E1 and increased p53 protein expression. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that CALCOCO2 was associated with 'autophagosome assembly', 'nucleophagy' and 'nucleic acid metabolic process' biological processes and interacted with sequestosome-1, microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3 (MAP1LC3)B, γ-aminobutyric acid receptor-associated protein, IκB kinase subunit γ and MAP1LC3C. Moreover, CALCOCO2 protein levels were indicated to be significantly increased in PCa samples compared with normal prostate tissues. These results suggested that CALCOCO2 may be of value as a diagnostic and therapeutic target in PCa.
