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
backgroundImmune-related enhancer RNAs (eRNAs) have garnered significant attention in cancer metabolism research, yet their specific roles in ccRCC have remained elusive.
methodsWe retrieved eRNA expression profiles from TCGA database and identified immune-related eRNAs (IREs) by assessing their co-expression with immune genes. Utilizing consensus clustering, we organized these IREs into two distinct clusters. The construction of an IREs signature was accomplished through the LASSO and multivariate Cox analysis. Furthermore, we performed Cell Counting Kit-8 and clonogenic assays to assess changes in the proliferative capacity of Caki-1 and 769-P cells.
resultsThe existence of two clusters of immune-related eRNAs in ccRCC, each with distinctive prognostic and immunological attributes. Cluster B exhibited immunosuppressive properties and displayed a positive correlation with immunosuppressive cells. Functional enrichment analysis unveiled their involvement in several tumor-promoting pathways, metabolic pathways and immune pathways. The IREs signature demonstrated its potential to accurately predict patient immune and prognostic characteristics. AC003092.1, an eRNA strongly associated with patient survival, emerged as a potential oncogene significantly linked to adverse prognosis and the presence of immunosuppressive cells and checkpoints in ccRCC patients. Notably, AC003092.1 displayed marked upregulation in ccRCC tissues and cell lines, and its knockdown substantially inhibited the proliferation of Caki-1 and 769-P cells.
conclusionWe established a robust predictive model that played a vital role in determining the prognosis, clinicopathological characteristics and immune cell infiltration patterns of ccRCC patients. IRE, particularly AC003092.1, which was strongly associated with survival, hold promise as novel immunotherapeutic targets for ccRCC.
