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
Novel biomarkers are needed to accelerate the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis. We performed RNA sequencing to explore the expression profiles of exosomal circular RNAs (circRNAs), microRNAs (miRNAs) and mRNAs in patients with ovarian endometriomas, eutopic endometria and normal endometria. Differentially expressed genes between the different pairs of groups were analyzed and functionally annotated. Then, miRNA-target RNA pairs were identified, competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) scores were calculated, gene expression characteristics were determined, and these parameters were used to construct an exosomal ceRNA network. We identified 36 candidate hub genes with high degrees of gene connectivity. We also topologically analyzed the ceRNA network to obtain a hub ceRNA network of circRNAs with the highest closeness and ceRNA efficiency. Twelve genes overlapped between the 36 candidate hub genes and the genes in the hub ceRNA network. These 12 genes were considered to be exosomal RNA-based biomarkers, and circ_0026129/miRNA-15a-5p/ATPase H+ transporting V1 subunit A (
