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
Objective: There is a shortage of established prognostic biomarkers in bladder cancer. One candidate is tumour protein 63 (p63), a transcription factor of the p53 gene family that is expressed in the normal urothelium. Recently proposed RNA expression-based molecular classifiers of bladder cancer identified high p63 expression as a component of a basal/squamous subtype linked to poor patient prognosis. Methods: In this study, p63 protein expression was analysed by immunohistochemistry on more than 2500 urothelial bladder carcinomas in a tissue microarray format to determine its relationship with clinicopathological parameters of disease progression and patient outcome. Results: Nuclear p63 staining was seen in all cells of normal urothelium and at elevated levels in pTaG2 tumours. The rate of p63 positive cases and the staining intensity was lower in pTaG3 tumours (93.2%, Conclusion: The independent prognostic role of reduced p63 expression in advanced urothelial carcinomas suggests that p63 could be a useful biomarker to distinguish pT2-4 urothelial carcinomas.
