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
We aimed to investigate the dysregulation of the microRNAs(miRNAs) in cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), including its impact on the homeostasis of the transcriptome and cellular behavior. MiRNAs serve as potent epigenetic regulators of transcriptional output, targeting various signaling pathways. This study aimed to investigate the expression level, epigenetic mechanism and function of miR-125a-3 in CCA. The study data showed that the expression level of miR125a-3p was decreased in CCA tissue samples and cell lines, and it was closely related to lymph node metastasis, tissue differentiation and TNM stage. The data demonstrate a strong association between decreased miR-125a-3p expression and poorer prognosis in cholangiocarcinoma patients. miR-125a-3p acts as a tumor suppressor by inhibiting the viability, migration and invasion of CCA cells. There are CpG islands in the promoter region of miR-125a-3p gene, and the methylation of the promoter region of miR-125a-3p gene leads to the transcriptional repression of miR-125a-3p. In addition, miR125a-3p can target and regulate CAC1 mRNA and protein expression in the downstream mechanism, and the high expression of CAC1 can promote the proliferation, migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma cells. These data demonstrate that miR-125a-3p promoter methylation leads to silencing of its expression. Mechanically, miR-125a-3p acts as a tumor suppressor and participates in the occurrence and development of CCA through targeting CAC1 gene expression. Therefore, miR-125a-3p may serve as a new target for the diagnosis, prognostic assessment or molecular therapy of CCA.
