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
backgroundNeoplasms are a series of diseases affecting human health. Prognostic and tumor status-related markers for various tumors should be identified.
methodsBased on 19,515 samples from multiple sources, for the first time, this study provided an overview of gene S-phase kinase associated protein 2 (SKP2) in pan-cancer. Differential SKP2 expression in multiple comparison groups was identified by the Kruskal-Wallis test and Wilcoxon rank-sum test. The prognosis significance of SKP2 in individuals with neoplasm was evaluated through univariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier curves. The area under the curve was utilized to detect the accuracy of SKP2 in predicting cancer status. Spearman's rank correlation coefficients were calculated in all correlation analyses. Gene set enrichment analysis was used to identify essential signaling pathways of SKP2 in human neoplasms.
resultsThe study disclosed the upregulated SKP2 expression in 15 neoplasms and decreased SKP2 expression in three cancers (p < 0.05). The transcription factor Forkhead Box M1 may contribute to the increased expression levels of SKP2 in certain tumors. Over-expressed SKP2 represented a risk factor for the prognosis of most cancer patients (hazard ratio > 1, p < 0.05). SKP2 expression made it feasible to distinguish neoplasm and control tissues of 21 neoplasms (sensitivity = 0.79, specificity = 0.87, area under the curve = 0.90), implying its potential in screening a series of neoplasms. Further, the research revealed the close association of SKP2 expression with DNA methyltransferases, mismatch repair genes, microsatellite instability, tumor mutational burden, neoantigen count, and immunity.
conclusionsSKP2 plays an essential role in multiple neoplasms and may serve as a marker for treating and identifying these neoplasms.
