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: Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a class of malignant tumors originating from mesenchymal stroma with a poor prognosis. Accumulating evidence has proved that angiogenesis is an essential hallmark of tumors. Nevertheless, there is a paucity of comprehensive research exploring the association of angiogenesis-related genes (ARGs) with STS. Methods: The ARGs were extracted from previous literature, and the differentially expressed ARGs were screened for subsequent analysis. Next, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) and Cox regression analyses were conducted to establish the angiogenesis-related signature (ARSig). The predictive performance of the novel ARSig was confirmed using internal and external validation, subgroup survival, and independent analysis. Additionally, the association of the ARSig with the tumor immune microenvironment, tumor mutational burden (TMB), and therapeutic response in STS were further investigated. Notably, we finally conducted Results: A novel ARSig is successfully constructed and validated. The STS with a lower ARSig risk score in the training cohort has an improved prognosis. Also, consistent results were observed in the internal and external cohorts. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, subgroup survival, and independent analysis further indicate that the novel ARSig is a promising independent prognostic predictor for STS. Furthermore, it is proved that the novel ARSig is relevant to the immune landscape, TMB, immunotherapy, and chemotherapy sensitivity in STS. Encouragingly, we also validate that the signature ARGs are significantly dysregulated in STS, and ARDB2 and SRPK1 are closely connected with the malignant progress of STS cells. Conclusion: In sum, we construct a novel ARSig for STS, which could act as a promising prognostic factor for STS and give a strategy for future clinical decisions, immune landscape, and personalized treatment of STS.
