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 division of labor among cellular lineages is a pivotal step in the evolution of multicellularity. In mammals, the soma-germline boundary is formed during early embryogenesis, when genes that drive germline identity are repressed in somatic lineages through DNA and histone modifications at promoter CpG islands (CGIs). Somatic misexpression of germline genes is a signature of cancer and observed in select neurodevelopmental disorders. However, it is currently unclear if all germline genes use the same repressive mechanisms and if factors like development and sex influence their dysregulation. Here, we examine how cellular context influences the formation of somatic tissue identity in mice lacking lysine demethylase 5c (KDM5C), an X chromosome eraser of histone 3 lysine 4 di and tri-methylation (H3K4me2/3).
