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
backgroundPerioperative blood transfusion (BT) is frequent in the treatment of gastric cancer (GC), but its effects on the prognosis of GC remains controversial. In this study, we aimed to further confirm the relationship of perioperative BT with GC overall survival and to evaluate the predictive value of microRNA-338-3p (miR-338-3p) for the prognosis of GC patients who received perioperative BT.
methodsClinical data and serum samples were collected and analyzed from 246 patients with GC. Five-year follow-up survival information was assessed by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. miR-338-3p relative expression was assessed by RT-qPCR, and its relationship with the prognosis of GC patients, who received perioperative BT, was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analysis.
resultsGC patients received perioperative BT had poor 5 year survival than those without BT. In patients received BT, miR-338-3p expression was higher in survival cases than died population and high miR-338-3p was independently associated with better overall survival prognosis.
conclusionPerioperative BT is related with poor prognosis in GC patients and miR-338-3p may be a prognostic biomarker for GC patients received perioperative BT. BT in perioperative GC patients should be cautious, especially for those with low levels of miR-338-3p.
