CircNT5E Acts as a Sponge of miR-422a to Promote Glioblastoma Tumorigenesis.
Article in Cancer research, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 178 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
Circular RNA and long noncoding RNA function as efficient miRNA sponges that regulate gene expression in eukaryotes. However, the sponges of functional miRNAs in glioblastoma remain largely unknown. Here, we identify a subset of circRNAs and lncRNAs that are specifically increased in miR-422a-downregulated glioblastoma tissues. We characterized a novel circRNA derived from NT5E, named circNT5E, that is regulated by ADARB2 binding to sites flanking circRNA-forming introns. We hypothesized that circNT5E may serve as a sponge against miR-422a in glioblastoma tumorigenesis. circNT5E controlled multiple pathologic processes, including cell proliferation, migration, and invasion. circNT5E directly bound miR-422a and inhibited miR-422a activity. Furthermore, circNT5E was observed to sponge other miRNAs, exhibiting tumor suppressor-like features in glioblastoma. Taken together, these findings highlight a novel oncogenic function of circRNA in glioblastoma tumorigenesis.
