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
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a type of tumor with high malignant behaviors. Increasing investigates have confirmed that long non-coding RNA HLA complex group 18 (lncRNA HCG18) acted as a tumor-promoting factor in multiple tumors. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanism of HCG18 on OS remains largely unclear. HCG18, miR-34a, and runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) expressions were detected by quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) or western blotting assays, respectively. The underlying tumorigenic phenotypes were detected by MTT, wound healing, transwell invasion, western blotting assays. Molecular interactions were verified by dual-luciferase report assay. HCG18 and RUNX2 were notably enhanced, whereas miR-34a was decreased in OS tumor tissues and cell lines. Functional experiments uncovered that HCG18 silencing significantly inhibited the capabilities of proliferation, migration, and invasion, while overexpression of HCG18 play the opposite roles. Furthermore, HCG18 directly bound to miR-34a, and miR-34a was confirm to be a negative regulator of RUNX2. Interestingly, the anti-tumor effects of HCG18 silencing were attenuated by miR-34a inhibitor and RUNX2 overexpression. Taken together, the present study suggested that HCG18 promoted the malignant biological behaviors of OS through regulating the miR-34a/RUNX2 pathway, implying HCG18 might serve as a new target for OS treatment.
