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
Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is a frequent malignant tumor in neurosurgery characterized by a high degree of heterogeneity and genetic instability. DNA double-strand breaks generated by homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) are a well-known contributor to genomic instability, which can encourage tumor development. It is unknown, however, whether the molecular characteristics linked with HRD have a predictive role in GBM. The study aims to assess the extent of genomic instability in GBM using HRD score and investigate the prognostic significance of HRD-related molecular features in GBM. Methods: The discovery cohort comprised 567 GBM patients from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. We established HRD scores using the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array data and analyzed transcriptomic data from patients with different HRD scores to identify biomarkers associated with HRD. A prognostic model was built by using HRD-related differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and validated in a distinct cohort from the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas (CGGA) database. Results: Based on the SNP array data, the gene expression profile data, and the clinical characteristics of GBM patients, we found that patients with a high HRD score had a better prognosis than those with a low HRD score. The DNA damage repair (DDR) signaling pathways were notably enriched in the HRD-positive subgroup. The prognostic model was developed by including HRD-related DEGs that could evaluate the clinical prognosis of patients more efficiently than the HRD score. In addition, patients with a low-risk score had a considerably augmented signature of γδT cells. Finally, through univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses, it was demonstrated that the prognostic model was superior to other prognostic markers. Conclusions: In conclusion, our research has not only demonstrated that a high HRD score is a valid prognostic biomarker in GBM patients but also built a stable prognosis model [odds ratio (OR) 0.18, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.11-0.23, P<0.001] that is more accurate than conventional prognostic markers such as O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) methylation (OR 0.55, 95% CI: 0.33-0.91, P=0.02).
