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
backgroundBreast intraductal papilloma (IP) is mainly caused by the abnormal proliferation of ductal epithelial cells. Tree shrews have potential as an animal model for the study of breast tumours; however, little is known regarding the transcriptome and DNA methylome landscapes of breast IP in tree shrews. In this research, we conducted whole-genome DNA methylation and transcriptome analyses of breast IP and normal mammary glands in tree shrews.
methodsDNA methylation profiles were generated from the whole-genome bisulfite sequencing and whole-transcriptome landscapes of IP and control groups of tree shrews through strand-specific library construction and RNA sequencing. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes functional enrichment analyses and gene set enrichment analysis were performed. Spearman's correlation analysis was used to identify statistical relationships between gene expression and DNA methylation.
resultsA genome-wide perspective of the epigenetic regulation of protein-coding genes in breast IP in tree shrews was obtained. The methylation levels at CG sites were considerably higher than those at CHG or CHH sites, and were highest in gene body regions. In total, 3,486, 82 and 361 differentially methylated regions (DMRs) were identified in the context of CG, CHG, and CHH, respectively, and 701 differentially methylated genes (DMGs) were found. Further, through transcriptomic analysis, 62 differentially expressed genes, 50 long noncoding RNAs, and 32 circular RNAs were identified in breast IP compared to normal mammary glands. Correlation analysis between the DNA methylation and transcriptome data revealed that 25 DMGs were also differentially expressed genes, among which the expression levels of 9 genes were negatively correlated with methylation levels in gene body regions. Importantly, integrated analysis identified 3 genes (PDZ domain-containing 1, ATPase plasma membrane Ca
conclusionsThis research has unearthed the comprehensive landscape of the transcriptome and DNA methylome of spontaneous IP in tree shrews, as well as candidate tumorigenesis related genes in IP. These results will contribute to the use of tree shrews in animal models of breast tumours.
