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
Aim: This study aimed to learn the antineoplastic activity of curcumol (Cur) on prostate cancer (PCa) and elucidate its potential molecular mechanism. Methods: The proliferation, invasion, and migration of PCa cells (PC3 and 22RV1) were detected by the cell counting kit 8 (CCK8), transwell, and wound healing assay, respectively. The expression of genes and proteins was analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and western blotting (WB), respectively. The protein expression in tissues and cells was tested through immunohistochemistry (IHC) and immunocytochemistry (ICC). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was utilized to quantify the level of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The interaction between microRNA125a (miR-125a) and the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was confirmed via dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results: Cur effectively restrained the proliferation, invasion, and migration of PC3 and 22RV1 cells. After Cur intervention, miR-125a, miR-375, miR-149, miR-183, and miR-106b were all upregulated in PC3 cells, among which miR-125a was the most significantly upregulated. Dual-luciferase reporter assay combined with qRT-PCR and WB experiments confirmed that miR-125a targeted STAT3. Both Conclusion: Cur inhibited the development of PCa by miR-125a/STAT3 axis. This may provide a potential agent for treating PCa.
