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: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the digestive system. Several transmembrane (TMEM) proteins are defined as tumor suppressors or oncogenes. However, the role and underlying mechanism of TMEM200A in GC remain unclear. Methods: We analyzed the expression of TMEM200A in GC. Furthermore, the influence of TMEM200A on survival of GC patients was evaluated. The correlations between the clinical information and TMEM200A expression were analyzed using chi-square test and logistic regression. Relevant prognostic factors were identified performing univariate and multivariate analysis. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed based on the TCGA dataset. Finally, we explore the relationship between TMEM200A expression and cancer immune infiltrates using CIBERSORT. Results: TMEM200A was up-regulated in GC tissues than that in adjacent non-tumor tissues based on TCGA database. Meta-analysis and RT-qPCR validated the difference in TMEM200A expression. Kaplan-Meier curves suggested the increased TMEM200A had a poor prognosis in GC patients. The chi-square test and logistic regression analyses showed that the TMEM200A expression correlates significantly with T stage. Multivariate analysis showed that TMEM200A expression might be an important independent predictor of poor overall survival in GC patients. GSEA identified five immune-related signaling pathways and five tumor-related signaling pathways significantly enriched in the high TMEM200A expression phenotype pathway. Finally, we found CD8+ T cells is apparently decreased in high TMEM200A expression group. Conversely, eosinophils is increased in high expression group compared with low expression group. Conclusion: TMEM200A is a potential prognostic biomarker and correlated with immune infiltrates in GC.
