Sodium arsenite-mediated upregulation of circDHX34 promotes apoptosis in hormone-independent breast cancer cells by regulating apoptotic genes.
Article in Environmental science and pollution research international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Arsenic and the compounds thereof can be carcinogens or therapeutic agents for different cancer types. However, for breast cancer (BC), studies have yielded conflicted results on the role of arsenic. A previous study by the present authors indicated a potential relationship between circDHX34 and sodium arsenite-treated BC cells. As such, the expression, function, and potential mechanism of circDHX34 in sodium arsenite-treated MDA-MB-231 cells were further detected. In the present study, findings were made that sodium arsenite upregulated circDHX34 expression in MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and knockdown of circDHX34 could promote cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis. Further investigations revealed that knockdown of circDHX34 upregulated the expression levels of antiapoptotic genes BCL2 and BCL2L1 and downregulated the expression levels of proapoptotic genes CASP8 and CASP9. To conclude, by regulating apoptotic genes, sodium arsenite-mediated upregulation of circDHX34 promotes apoptosis in hormone-independent breast cancer cells.
