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
The objective of this study was to determine whether multi-microRNA analysis using a combination of four microRNA biomarkers (miR-1246, 202, 21, and 219B) could improve the diagnostic performance of mammography in determining breast cancer risk by age group (under 50 vs. over 50) and distinguish breast cancer from benign breast diseases and other cancers (thyroid, colon, stomach, lung, liver, and cervix cancers). To verify breast cancer classification performance of the four miRNA biomarkers and whether the model providing breast cancer risk score could distinguish between benign breast disease and other cancers, the model was verified using nonlinear support vector machine (SVM) and generalized linear model (GLM) and age and four miRNA qRT-PCR analysis values (dCt) were input to these models. Breast cancer risk scores for each Breast Imaging-Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category in multi-microRNA analysis were analyzed to examine the correlation between breast cancer risk scores and mammography categories. We generated two models using two classification algorithms, SVM and GLM, with a combination of four miRNA biomarkers showing high performance and sensitivities of 84.5% and 82.1%, a specificity of 85%, and areas under the curve (AUCs) of 0.967 and 0.965, respectively, which showed consistent performance across all stages of breast cancer and patient ages. The results of this study showed that this multi-microRNA analysis using the four miRNA biomarkers was effective in classifying breast cancer in patients under the age of 50, which is challenging to accurately diagnose. In addition, breast cancer and benign breast diseases can be classified, showing the possibility of helping with diagnosis by mammography. Verification of the performance of the four miRNA biomarkers confirmed that multi-microRNA analysis could be used as a new breast cancer screening aid to improve the accuracy of mammography. However, many factors must be considered for clinical use. Further validation with an appropriate screening population in large clinical trials is required. This trial is registered with (KNUCH 2022-04-036).
