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
Chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 6A (CCT6A) was recently discovered to be involved in cancer pathogenesis and stemness; however, its role in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) has not been reported. The current study aimed to investigate the impact of CCT6A on OSCC cell malignant behaviors and stemness and to explore its potentially interreacted pathways. SCC-15 and HSC-3 cells were transfected with the plasmid loading control overexpression, CCT6A overexpression, control knockout, or CCT6A knockout. Wnt4 overexpression or Notch1 overexpression plasmids were transfected into CCT6A-knockout SCC-15 cells. Cell proliferation, apoptosis, invasion, stemness, Notch, and Wnt pathways were detected in both cell lines, whereas RNA sequencing was only performed in SCC-15 cells. CCT6A was upregulated in five OSCC cell lines, including SCC-15, HSC-3, SAT, SCC-9, and KON, compared to that in the control cell line. In SCC-15 and HSC-3 cells, CCT6A overexpression increased cell proliferation, invasion, sphere formation, CD133, and Sox2 expression, but decreased cell apoptosis; on the contrary, CCT6A knockout exhibited an opposite effect on the above indexes. RNA-sequencing data revealed that the Wnt and Notch pathways were involved in the CCT6A'effect on SCC-15 cell functions. CCT6A positively regulates the Wnt and Notch pathways in SCC-15 and HSC-3 cells. Importantly, it was shown that activation of the Wnt or Notch pathways attenuated the effect of CCT6A knockout on SCC-15 cell survival, invasion, and stemness. CCT6A may promote OSCC malignant behavior and stemness by activating the Wnt and Notch pathways.
