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
Increasing evidence has demonstrated that RING finger (RNF) proteins played a vital role in cellular and physiological processes and various diseases. However, the function of RNF proteins in low-grade glioma (LGG) remains unknown. In this study, 138 RNF family members revealed their role in LGG. The TCGA database was used as the training cohort; two CGGA databases and GSE108474 were selected as external validation cohorts. Patients were grouped into cluster 1 and cluster 2, both in the training and validation cohorts, using consensus clustering analysis. The prognosis of patients in cluster 1 is significantly better than that in cluster 2. Meanwhile, biofunction prediction was further introduced to explore the potential mechanisms that led to differences in survival outcomes. Patients in Cluster 2 showed more complicated immunocytes infiltration and highly immunosuppressive features than cluster 1. Enrichment pathways such as negative regulation of mast cell activation, DNA replication, mismatch repair, Th17 cell differentiation, antigen processing and presentation, dendritic cell antigen processing and presentation, dendritic cell differentiation were also enriched in cluster 2 patients. For the last, the main contributors were distinguished by employing a machine learning algorithm. A lot of targeted and small molecule drugs that are sensitive to patients in cluster 2 were predicted. Importantly, we discovered TRIM8, DTX2, and TRAF5 as the most vital contributors from the RNF family, which were related to immune infiltration in LGG tumor immune landscape. In this study, we demonstrated the predicted role of RNF proteins in LGG. In addition, we found out three markers among RNF proteins that are closely related to the immune aspects of LGG, which might serve as novel therapeutic targets for immunotherapy in the future.
