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
Liver cancer is one of the prominent cancer-associated fatal diseases with > 80% of cases befall in low-middle resource nations worldwide. In the current study, we studied the effect of euxanthone (EUX) on obesity-associated liver cancer using a high-fat diet-fed mouse model of diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-provoked hepatocellular carcinoma. Mice with 2 weeks of age were intraperitoneally injected with diethylnitrosamine (DEN) 25 mg/kg b.w. After 4 weeks, the mice were divided into four groups with low-fat diet (LFD), high-fat diet (HFD), and EUX treatment groups with or without PPARγ inhibitor (GW9662). We observed that TIMP3, E-cadherin, and Klotho expressions were downmodulated, while MMP9, ADAM17, and Wnt signalling biofactors (Wnt5a, Wnt3a and β-catenin) were upmodulated in the HFD groups. Nevertheless, these aberrations were reciprocated by the treatment with EUX; at the same time, co-administration of PPARγ inhibitor ablated the anti-cancer effects of EUX, indicating that PPARγ activation is a pivotal mechanism underpinning the negative regulation of oncogenic factors by EUX. Together, these results imply that EUX might be a viable therapeutic option in the treatment of obesity-associated hepatocarcinogenesis.
