Upregulated Transcription Factor PITX1 Predicts Poor Prognosis in Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma-Based Bioinformatic Analysis and Experimental Verification.
Article in Disease markers, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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
Paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 1 (PITX1) is involved in numerous biological processes, including cell growth, progression, and invasion in various malignant tumors. Nevertheless, the relationship between PITX1 and kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) remains unclear. The clinical role and functions of PITX1 were analyzed by integrating multiple open-access online datasets. Further experimental verification was performed via quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) to detect the expression of PITX1 in 10 pairs of KIRC tissues. Our results revealed that PITX1 mRNA was overexpressed in tumor tissues compared with normal tissues in the TCGA-KIRC database (
