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
Background: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to be involved in the regulation of numerous biological processes in embryonic development. We aimed to explore lncRNA expression profiles in ventricular septal defects (VSDs) and reveal their potential roles in heart development. Methods: Microarray analyses were performed to screen differentially expressed lncRNAs (DE-lncRNAs) and mRNAs (DE-mRNAs) in the amniotic fluid between the VSD group and the control group. Bioinformatics analyses were further used to identify the functional enrichment and signaling pathways of important mRNAs. Then, a coding-noncoding gene coexpression (CNC) network and competitive endogenous RNAs (ceRNA) network were drawn. Finally, qRT Results: A total of 710 DE-lncRNAs and 397 DE-mRNAs were identified in the VSD group. GO and KEGG analyses revealed that the DE-mRNAs were enriched in cardiac development-related biological processes and pathways, including cell proliferation, cell apoptosis, and the Sonic Hedgehog signaling pathway. Four VSD related mRNAs was used to construct the CNC network, which included 149 pairs of coexpressing lncRNAs and mRNAs. In addition, a ceRNA network, including 15 lncRNAs, 194 miRNAs, and four mRNAs, was constructed to reveal the potential regulatory relationship between lncRNAs and protein-coding genes. Finally, seven RNAs in the ceRNA network were validated, including IDS, NR2F2, GPC3, LINC00598, GATA3-AS1, PWRN1, and LINC01551. Conclusion: Our study identified some lncRNAs and mRNAs may be potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for foetuses with VSD, and described the lncRNA-associated ceRNA network in the progression of VSD.
