1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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 rapid development of bioinformatic technology is boosting the discovery of components hiding in the darkness. As a type of universal, conservative, tissue-specific and stable molecules, circular RNA (circRNA) is a class of endogenous non-coding RNA that has no 5' cap and 3' poly(A) tail and forms a covalently closed continuous loop. At present, 3 types of circRNAs including exonic circRNA (ecRNA), intronic circRNA (ciRNA), and axon-intronic circRNA have been reported. Nowadays informatic technology and high-throughput sequencing have verified the abundance of endogenous circRNAs in eukaryocytes, with predominantly expressed in the cell cytoplasm. Their unique sequences endow them with special functions, such as miRNA sponge, selective transcription or splicing, and attaching to RNA-binding proteins. DATA SOURCES: This review was based on articles published in PubMed databases up to January, 2019, with the following keywords: "circular RNA", "database", and "reproductive tumor" (Flow chart).

objectivesOriginal articles and reviews on the topics were selected.

resultsStudies have uncovered the interplay between circRNAs and the development of ovarian epithelial tumors, ovarian carcinoma, and cervical carcinoma, which suggesting the potential of circRNAs as biomarkers or therapeutic targets for human diseases.

conclusionsCircular RNA has been found to play a role in gynecological tumors diseases. Meanwhile, we reviewed the studies on how CircularRNA participate in gynecological tumors, which provides a basis for the study of CircularRNA in gynecological tumors.
