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
Immunotherapy is considered to be one of the most promising curative modalities for cancer, and the effectiveness of immunotherapy depends on the abundance of immune cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Immunotherapy tends to be more effective in "hot tumors" characterized by a high abundant immune cells. Our previous studies found that secretagogin (SCGN) showed intranuclear aggregation in the early stages of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) development. However, with tumor progression and distant metastasis of the ccRCC, the expression of SCGN is gradually absent. In this study, we found that SCGN did not affect the malignant phenotype of cancer cells, but could regulate cytokine/chemokine secretion and immune cell migration by performing gene function assays and RNA-seq analyses after overexpressing SCGN in cell lines of ccRCC. Bioinformatics analysis, Transwell and co-culture experiments confirmed that ccRCC cells overexpressing SCGN could recruit M1-type macrophages. Mechanistically, SCGN initiates downstream cytokine/chemokine expression and secretion through the NF-κB signal pathway. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the function of SCGN in ccRCC. Continuous forced expression of SCGN at different stages may be a potential approach for the treatment of ccRCC.
