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
backgroundThe long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) GAPLINC, or gastric adenocarcinoma predictive long intergenic ncRNA, plays a carcinogenic role in a variety of different tumor types. There is limited information regarding the biological function of GAPLINC in the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).
methodsSurgical tissue samples of 40 patients undergoing ESCC radical surgery were collected, including ESCC tissues and corresponding adjacent normal tissues. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of lncRNA GAPLINC in the human ESCC cell line (TE11). The function role of LncRNA GAPLINC was detected after specific siRNA interference and overexpression in the TE11 cell line. The effects of LncRNA GAPLINC on ESCC cell proliferation, migration and invasion abilities were investigated by flow cytometry, using the Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), and by Transwell migration assays, respectively.
resultsThe expression of lncRNA GAPLINC in ESCC tissues was significantly higher than that in corresponding adjacent normal tissues (P<0.05) and correlated with the degree of tumor differentiation (P<0.05). Compared with human esophageal normal epithelial cell lines, the expression of LncRNA GAPLINC was significantly higher in the human ESCC cell line (P<0.05). CCK-8 assays showed that LncRNA GAPLINC overexpression increased the growth rate of cells (P<0.05). Transwell experiments showed that LncRNA GAPLINC overexpression increased the ability of cell migration and invasion compared to control cells (P<0.05). Annexin V assay revealed that LncRNA GAPLINC silencing increased early stage apoptosis (P<0. 05).
conclusionOur results suggest that LncRNA GAPLINC may be used as a biomarker for the diagnosis and monitoring of ESCC, and may play an oncogenic role in ESCC.
