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
The study aims to identify potential drug targets for endometrial cancer (EC) subtypes through a Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, assessing their clinical relevance. We utilized genetic instruments for 4,907 plasma proteins from the deCODE Genetics study dataset, and data with EC (n = 12,906) from a genome-wide study (GWAS) meta-analysis in European populations for MR analyses. Complementary analyses included protein-protein interactions (PPI) network analysis, therapeutic efficacy evaluation, differential gene expression assessment, and prognosis evaluation. The expression levels of key drug targets were quantitatively measured at both the transcriptional and translational stages utilizing reverse transcription quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Additionally, we analyzed various clinicopathological features. Five drug targets for EC (CBR3, GSTO1, HHIP, IGF2R, and MMP10), seven for endometrioid subtypes (ACAP2, CBR3, GSTO1, HHIP, IGF2R, MMP10, and TLR2), and seven for non-endometrioid subtypes (CST3, DNAJB14, FSTL5, GMPR2, IFI16, MAPK9, and NEO1) were identified. Among these, IGF2R (OR = 1.165; 95% CI 1.067-1.272; p = 1.046 × 10
