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
objectiveAccumulating evidence suggests that differentially expressed circular RNAs (circRNAs) play critical roles in immune cells of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Hsa_circ_0000479 has been studied in the field of cancer and infection, whereas seldom studied in autoimmune diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the role and clinical value of neutrophil hsa_circ_0000479 in SLE.
methodsThe expression levels of hsa_circ_0000479 in both healthy individuals and SLE patients' neutrophils were detected by qPCR and compared with those in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) . In addition, the correlation of hsa_circ_0000479 levels in neutrophils with the clinical and immunological features of SLE patients was also analysed.
resultsThe expression levels of hsa_circ_0000479 in the patients with SLE were significantly higher in neutrophils than that of PBMCs, and also significantly higher than that in healthy controls (HCs). Moreover, the expression levels of hsa_circ_0000479 in neutrophils were negatively associated with absolute neutrophil count and complement 3 (C3), whereas positively correlated with anti-dsDNA and anti-nucleosome antibodies in SLE. In addition, SLE patients with higher levels of hsa_circ_0000479 demonstrated more several clinical manifestations, including Raynaud's phenomenon, alopecia and leucopenia.
conclusionsHsa_circ_0000479 is up-regulated in neutrophils of SLE patients, and is also associated with several important laboratory indicators and clinical manifestations, suggesting that hsa_circ_0000479 in neutrophils was one of probable factors involved in the pathogenesis of SLE with potential clinical value.
