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
Cholangiocarcinoma is the most common malignant bile duct tumor in Southeast Asia. The special location of cholangiocarcinoma leads to it being difficult to diagnose. Currently, the progress in clinical prognosis outcomes remains abysmal owing to the lack of definitive diagnostic criteria. Therefore, uncovering the potential markers for cholangiocarcinoma is a pressing issue. Ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 C (UBE2C) is a critical ubiquitination enzyme; it is involved in the tumorigenesis of various malignancies and affects the patient's prognosis. However, there is currently no relevant literature to indicate whether UBE2C is related to the clinical survival outcome of cholangiocarcinoma patients. In this report, we mined the published cholangiocarcinoma transcriptome data set (GSE26566), compared it with the ubiquitination-associated gene (GO:0016567), and identified that UBE2C was highly expressed in cholangiocarcinoma tumor tissue. Moreover, high expression of UBE2C was markedly correlated with surgical margin, primary tumor, histological variants, and histological grade. More specifically, high expression of UBE2C was negatively associated with overall survival, disease-specific survival, local recurrence-free survival, and metastasis-free survival in patients with cholangiocarcinoma. Our findings demonstrate that UBE2C may provide a potential therapeutic marker and prognostic factor for cholangiocarcinoma patients.
