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 aim of the present study was to examine primary cilia in endometrial tissue during the menstrual cycle and to clarify their morphological changes with different grades of endometrial cancer. Images of fluorescence immunostaining taken by confocal microscopy were used to count the number of primary cilia in normal endometrium and endometrioid carcinoma Grade 1 and Grade 3 specimens. To examine the association between autophagy and ciliogenesis in endometrioid carcinoma, the expression of p62/Sequestosome-1, a selective substrate for autophagy, and oral-facial-digital syndrome 1 protein (OFD1), a protein associated with ciliogenesis, were examined using images of fluorescence immunostaining taken by confocal microscopy. The level of p62 expression was confirmed by western blotting. In proliferative and secretory endometrial stromal cells, the percentage of cells that were ciliated was 7.2 and 32.7% (95% confidence interval=21.61-39.79; P<0.01), and the length of the primary cilia was 1.24 µm and 2.34 µm (0.92-1.26; P<0.01), respectively. In stromal cells of endometrioid carcinoma Grade 1 and Grade 3, the percentage of ciliated cells was 13.5 and 2.9% (7.89-15.05; P<0.001), and the length of the primary cilia was 2.02 and 1.14 µm (0.76-0.99; P<0.001), respectively. In both normal menstrual cycle tissue and endometrial carcinomas, the percentage of primary cilia was lower and their length was shorter in tissues with higher proliferative potential. The expression of OFD1 was significantly higher in Grade 3 compared with Grade 1 as indicated by quantifying the intensity of the fluorescence images (133-12248; P=0.046). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study concerning the distribution of primary cilia in normal endometrium and endometrial cancer tissues. Overall, fewer ciliated cells in the highly malignant endometrial cancer tissues may be associated not only to the proliferation of cancer cells, but also to the excessive accumulation of OFD1 due to dysfunctional autophagy.
