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: There is a potential bidirectional pathogenicity between thyroid and breast cancers. The association between sex hormones and two types of malignant tumors has emerged as a topic of intense academic debate in recent years. However, the role of sex hormone metabolism-related genes in thyroid cancer still needs to be further explored. Methods: We obtained thyroid and breast cancer transcriptome data from the TCGA database and sex hormone metabolism-related gene sets from the MSigDB database, thus screening for sex hormone metabolism-related genes linked to the two malignant tumors. Univariate cox regression analysis was used for the screening of disease-free survival (DFS)-associated genes. The TCGA-THCA patients were classified as two categories via a consistent clustering algorithm, and the differential genes between the two categories were subsequently screened. A sex hormone metabolism-related prognostic model (TBSMRPM) of thyroid cancer versus breast cancer consisting of 10 genes was developed by Cox regression analyses and least absolute shrinkage with selection operator (LASSO) cox regression analysis. Finally, we performed clinicopathological subgroup analyses to analyze the correlation between TBSMRPM and clinical characteristics, immune infiltration, tumor mutation burden (TMB), and chemosensitivity, and verified the expression of TBSMRPM signature genes by qRT-PCR. Results: We identified 2 clusters correlated with sex hormone metabolism, and screened 10 prognostic differential genes related to thyroid cancer, breast cancer and sex hormone metabolism. After establishing the two risk groups for thyroid cancer originated from TBSMRPM, the results showed that the high-risk group exhibited the shorter DFS ( Conclusion: The TBSMRPM established in this study has a certain value for the prognosis of thyroid cancer and contributes to refine clinicians' treatment protocols.
