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
backgroundChemoresistance poses a significant challenge in the treatment of osteosarcoma (OS). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have emerged as crucial regulators of cancer biology. Despite accumulating evidence linking dysregulation of lncRNAs to chemoresistance, the specific regulatory functions and complexities involved in lncRNA-mediated modulation of doxorubicin-based chemotherapy in OS remain understudied.
methodsWe examined expression levels of lncRNA Lnc-PHF3-3 and miR-142-3p in OS tissues and cell lines by lncRNA microarray profiling and qRT-PCR. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function assays were performed to examine the effect of lncRNA Lnc-PHF3-3 and miR-142-3p on chemoresistance of OS cells. Using fluorescence reporter and western blot assays, we also explored the possible mechanisms of Lnc-PHF3-3 in OS cells.
resultsThis study aimed to investigate key lncRNAs associated with chemoresistance in OS and identify potential therapeutic targets for patients with chemoresistant OS. To identify chemoresistance-related lncRNAs, microarray analysis was conducted using drug-resistant/drug-sensitive OS cell lines and chemoresistant/chemosensitive OS tissues. Among the identified candidates, a novel lncRNA called Lnc-PHF3-3 was found to be upregulated in doxorubicin-resistant OS cell lines and chemoresistant OS patients. Functional characterization revealed that Lnc-PHF3-3 promoted doxorubicin resistance both in vitro and in vivo. Further investigation revealed that Lnc-PHF3-3 acted as a sponge for microRNA miR-142-3p, and overexpression of miR-142-3p resulted in reduced chemoresistance. Additionally, the high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) gene was identified as a direct and functional target of miR-142-3p.
conclusionsWe conclude that Lnc-PHF3-3 contributes to doxorubicin resistance in OS by sequestering miR-142-3p and subsequently enhancing HMGB1 expression.
