The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers.
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
backgroundThe malignancy of melanoma is attributed to its pronounced invasiveness, extensive vascularization, and rapid tumor cell growth and metastasis. LncRNA SLNCR1 is closely associated with a variety of aggressive tumors. However, our understanding of SLNCR1 influences on malignant melanoma growth metastasis mechanism especially proangiogenic mechanism remains unclear.
methodsThe expression of SLNCR1 was evaluated in melanoma tissues, adjacent tissues, melanoma cell lines. The abilities of SLNCR1 on proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HUVECs were detected by CCK-8, flow cytometry, and Western blot assays. The association between SLNCR1, DNMT1, and SPRY2 was assessed by ChIP, RIP, and Western blot assays. The effect of SLNCR1 on tumor growth was determined using a xenograft model in nude mice.
resultsSLNCR1 was confirmed to be highly expressed in melanoma tissues and cells. CM from melanoma cells transfected with sh-SLNCR1 attenuated proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis of HUVECs. Moreover, loss of SLNCR1 hindered tumor growth and metastasis, as evidenced by reduced tumor size and weight, as well as angiogenesis. Mechanistic studies revealed that SLNCR1 silenced SPRY2 expression, likely through enhancing DNMT1-mediated DNA methylation of SPRY2 promoter.
conclusionSLNCR1 is an oncogene that interacts with DNMT1 to mediate SPRY2 methylation, thereby suppressing SPRY2 expression and promoting the angiogenesis and tumor growth in melanoma. SLNCR1 may serve as a potential target for melanoma treatment.
