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
backgroundDeregulation of lncRNAs has been observed in human osteosarcoma. This study explored the diagnostic and prognostic significance of EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 in osteosarcoma.
methodsRelative levels of EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 were detected in osteosarcoma tissue samples and cells. The ability to distinguish osteosarcoma from health was assessed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve construction. Kaplan-Meier (K-M) and Cox proportional-hazards analyses were performed for prognosis factors. The bioinformatics approach was used to identify targeting miRNA for EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1. Kaplan-Meier survival curves and Whitney Mann U tests were conducted for validating the statistical significance. In cell culture experiments, the influence of EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 on proliferation, migration, and invasion of the osteosarcoma cell line was examined by CCK-8 and Transwell assays.
resultsLevels of EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 were upregulated in osteosarcoma patients and cells compared with the healthy participants and normal cell lines. EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 have a potent ability to distinguish the patients with osteosarcoma from the health. EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 levels correlated with SSS stage. Patients with high levels of EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 had significantly shorter survival times. EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 were independent prognostic indexes for overall survival. miR-1306-5p was a common target for EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1. A propulsive impact on cell proliferation, migration, and invasion by EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 was observed, but can be rescued by miR-1306-5p.
conclusionsIt was concluded that upregulations of EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 expression were diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers for human osteosarcoma. EPB41L4A-AS1 and UNC5B-AS1 contribute to the biological behavior of osteosarcoma via miR-1306-5p.
