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
Objective: This study was aimed to investigate the role of non-neuronal cholinergic system (NNCS) in the early stage response of epithelial-mesenchymal transformation (EMT) related markers in human lung adenocarcinoma A549 cells induced by coal particles. Methods: A549 cells were exposed to different concentrations of GBW11110K, GBW11126D and exogenous acetylcholinesterase (AChE) (the exposure doses were determined according to the results of CCK-8 experiment, and the doses that had no significant effects on cell viability were selected) for 24 h. After exposure, the indexes of oxidative stress (SOD and MDA), inflammatory factors (IL-6 and TNF-α), EMT marker proteins (E-cadherin and vimentin), AChE enzymatic activity and mRNA expression levels of different types of acetylcholine receptors ( Results: GBW11110K and GBW11126D exposure could lead to the following injury effects: the levels of oxidative stress and inflammatory factors changed to a certain extent (SOD decreased gradually, while MDA, IL-6 and TNF-α increased). The protein level of E-cadherin decreased while the vimentin level increased ( Conclusion: The coal particle exposure could induce the change of oxidative stress response, inflammatory response and EMT related markers, down-regulate the AChE enzymatic activity, and interfere the mRNA expression levels of AChRs in A549 cells. The addition of exogenous AChE recombinant protein could reverse the above effects to a certain extent.
