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
Purpose: The mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway is often studied in oncology as the most easily mentioned signaling pathway. This study aims to establish a new prognostic risk model of MAPK pathway related molecules in kidney renal clear cell carcinoma (KIRC) based on genome and transcriptome analysis. Methods: In our study, RNA-seq data were acquired from the KIRC dataset of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. MAPK signaling pathway-related genes were obtained from the gene enrichment analysis (GSEA) database. We used "glmnet" and the "survival" extension package for LASSO (Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator) regression curve analysis and constructed a prognosis-related risk model. The survival curve and the COX regression analysis were used the "survival" expansion packages. The ROC curve was plotted using the "survival ROC" extension package. We then used the "rms" expansion package to construct a nomogram plot. We performed a pan-cancer analysis of CNV (copy number variation), SNV (single nucleotide variant), drug sensitivity, immune infiltration, and overall survival (OS) of 14 MAPK signaling pathway-related genes using several analysis websites, such as GEPIA website and TIMER database. Besides, the immunohistochemistry and pathway enrichment analysis used The Human Protein Atlas (THPA) database and the GSEA method. Finally, the mRNA expression of risk model genes in clinical renal cancer tissues versus adjacent normal tissues was further verified by real-time quantitative reverse transcription (qRT-PCR). Results: We performed Lasso regression analysis using 14 genes and created a new KIRC prognosis-related risk model. High-risk scores suggested that KIRC patients with lower-risk scores had a significantly worse prognosis. Based on the multivariate Cox analysis, we found that the risk score of this model could serve as an independent risk factor for KIRC patients. In addition, we used the THPA database to verify the differential expression of proteins between normal kidney tissues and KIRC tumor tissues. Finally, the results of qRT-PCR experiments suggested large differences in the mRNA expression of risk model genes. Conclusions: This study constructs a KIRC prognosis prediction model involving 14 MAPK signaling pathway-related genes, which is essential for exploring potential biomarkers for KIRC diagnosis.
