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
backgroundGlucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (GIONFH) is a common disease in osteoarticular surgery, with a high disability rate, which brings great physical and mental pain and economic burden to patients. Its specific pathogenesis has not been fully demonstrated, and there is a lack of recognized effective biomarkers for earlier detection and prompt treatment. This has become an urgent clinical problem for orthopedic scholars. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe downloaded the gene expression profile dataset GSE123568 from the Gene Expression Omnibus database, used STRING and Cytoscape to carry out module analysis and built a gene interaction network. The four core genes most related to GIONFH in this network were ultimately found out by precise analysis and animal experiment were then conducted for verification. In this verification process, thirty-six New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into blank control group, model group and drug group. Except for the blank control group, the animal model of GIONFH was established by lipopolysaccharide and methylprednisolone, while the drug group was given the lipid-lowering drugs for intervention as planned. The rabbits were taken for magnetic resonance imaging at different stages, and their femoral head specimens were taken for pathological examination, then the expression of target genes in the femoral head specimens of corresponding groups was detected. Validation methods included RT-PCR and pathological examination.
resultsA total of 679 differential genes were selected at first, including 276 up-regulated genes and 403 down-regulated genes. Finally, four genes with the highest degree of correlation were screened. Animal experiment results showed that ASXL1 and BNIP3L were in low expression, while FCGR2A and TYROBP were highly expressed.
conclusionThrough animal experiments, it was confirmed that ASXL1, BNIP3L, FCGR2A and TYROBP screened from the comparative analysis of multiple genes in the database were closely related to GIONFH, which is important for early diagnosis of Glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
