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
objectiveThe objective was to evaluate the expression of melanoma antigen (MAGE) A from A1 to 10 (A1-10) and the individual MAGE A family in the peripheral lung tumors and to analyze its association with histopathological findings.
methodsA cross-sectional study was conducted on 67 samples of peripheral lung tumor obtained by core biopsies from patients with clinical diagnoses such as lung and mediastinal tumors. The specimens were divided into two, one to perform histopathological diagnosis and the last for mRNA MAGE A examination. A Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was performed using universal primer, MF10/MR10 and MF10/MR12. The collected data were analyzed by appropriate statistical techniques.
resultThe histopathological finding showed 41 (61.2 %) of specimens as malignant cells and 26 (38.8 %) of specimens as non-malignant cells. MAGE A1-10 was expressed at 47 (70.1 %) and MAGE A1-6 was expressed at 25 (37.3 %) of specimens. In a malignant cell, MAGE A1-10 and MAGE A1-6 were expressed at 33 (80.5 %) and 19 (46.3 %), respectively. In non-malignant cells, MAGE A1-10 and MAGE A1-6 were expressed at 14 (53.9 %) and 6 (23.1 %,) respectively. The MAGE A1-10 and MAGE A8 expressions were significantly associated with histopathological findings of malignant or non-malignant cells. The sensitivity, specificity, and diagnostic accuracy of MAGE A1-10 were 80.5 %, 46.2 %, and 67.2 %, respectively; while for MAGE A8 were 41.5 %, 88.5 %, and 59.7 %, respectively.
conclusionThe MAGE A1-10 expression was the most commonly detected and associated with the histopathological finding. Moreover, it was more sensitive and specific and had higher diagnostic accuracy than others. Therefore, the MAGE A1-10 assay may improve the accuracy of the diagnosis of malignancy in peripheral lung tumors.
