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
backgroundLong intergenic non-protein coding RNA 707 (LINC00707) has been identified as a cancer-associated long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in a variety of cancers. However, the functions and molecular mechanisms of LINC00707 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) are still unclear.
methodsThe expression of LINC00707 in esophageal cancer (ESCA) and ESCC tissues was determined by online tools, RNA-sequence (RNA-seq) dataset, and quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The associations between LINC00707 expression and clinicopathologic features and prognosis were investigated. Furthermore, the expression of LINC00707 in ESCC cell lines was determined by qRT-PCR. Then, using LncACTdb 2.0 database, combined with loss-of-function assay verification, we investigated the biologic role of LINC00707 in ESCC cell growth, apoptosis, invasion, and migration by CCK-8, colony formation, flow cytometry and transwell assays. Finally, western blot was used to evaluate the regulatory effect of LINC00707 on PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.
resultsIncreased LINC00707 expression was exhibited in ESCC tissues and cell lines. High expression of LINC00707 was positively associated with higher tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage and lymph node metastasis. Furthermore, LINC00707 expression was significantly higher in patients who drink alcohol, have lymph node metastasis, and harbor higher tumor stage. In addition, Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve confirmed the feasibility of LINC00707 as a prognostic signature or diagnostic marker. Functional experiments showed that LINC00707 downregulation suppressed ESCC cell proliferation, and metastasis, and induced ESCC cell apoptosis. Mechanistic investigation demonstrated that LINC00707 activated the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway in ESCC cells.
conclusionsOur findings suggest LINC00707 functions as an oncogenic lncRNA in ESCC, and imply that LINC00707 may be a promising prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for ESCC patients.
