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
backgroundARL9 is a newly identified member of the ARF family, and the clinical significance of ARL9 in colon adenocarcinoma is unknown. In this study, we aimed to explore the expression of ARL9 mRNA in colon adenocarcinoma, and its effect on the prognosis of patients with colon adenocarcinoma.
methodsWe investigated the differential expression of ARL9 between colon adenocarcinoma tissue and adjacent tissues through a bioinformatics analysis using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. The correlation between clinical characteristics and the mRNA expression level of ARL9 were analyzed. A survival analysis and a Cox regression analysis were used to determine the prognostic significance of ARL9. Finally, we conducted a gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) to explore the ARL9 signaling pathways involved in the development of colon adenocarcinoma. The effect of the expression of ARL9 on the proliferation and migration of colon adenocarcinoma was analyzed by the CCK8 method and a cell scratch test, respectively.
resultsThe mRNA expression of ARL9 in colon adenocarcinoma tissues was higher in comparison to the level in normal adjacent tissues (P < 0.05). The mRNA expression of ARL9 was not related to sex, tumor stage, T stage, N stage, M stage, but to age. The 5-year survival rate of colon adenocarcinoma patients with high ARL9 mRNA expression levels was significantly lower than that of patients with low ARL9 mRNA expression levels (P < 0.05). Age and the high mRNA expression of ARL9 were independent risk factors for a poor prognosis in patients with colon adenocarcinoma. The GSEA suggested that ARL9 may be able to upregulate cell adhesion, extracellular matrix receptor interactions, tumor-associated pathways, and downregulate the citrate cycle and tricarboxylic acid cycle pathway, which are involved in the development of colon adenocarcinoma. After knocking down ARL9, the proliferation and migration abilities of colon adenocarcinoma cells were decreased (P < 0.01).
conclusionThe mRNA expression of ARL9 is upregulated in colon adenocarcinoma, and higher mRNA expression levels are associated with a poor prognosis. Knocking down ARL9 can reduce the proliferation and migration of colon adenocarcinoma cells. ARL9 mRNA can be used as a prognostic biomarker in patients with colon adenocarcinoma.
