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
Human pluripotent stem cell-derived endothelial cells (hPSC-ECs) represent a promising source of human ECs urgently needed for the study of cardiovascular disease mechanisms, cell therapy, and drug screening. This study aims to explore the function and regulatory mechanism of the miR-148/152 family consisting of miR-148a, miR-148b, and miR-152 in hPSC-ECs, so as to provide new targets for improving EC function during the above applications. In comparison with the wild-type (WT) group, miR-148/152 family knockout (TKO) significantly reduced the endothelial differentiation efficiency of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), and impaired the proliferation, migration, and capillary-like tube formatting abilities of their derived ECs (hESC-ECs). Overexpression of miR-152 partially restored the angiogenic capacity of TKO hESC-ECs. Furthermore, the mesenchyme homeobox 2 (MEOX2) was validated as the direct target of miR-148/152 family. MEOX2 knockdown resulted in partial restoration of the angiogenesis ability of TKO hESC-ECs. The Matrigel plug assay further revealed that the
