Critical appraisal of epigenetic regulation of galectins in cancer.
Review in International journal of clinical oncology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Galectins are defined as the glycan-binding protein containing either one or two carbohydrate-binding domains and participate in various biological functions such as developmental processes, vascularisation programs, cell migration, and immune-regulation and apoptosis. Galectins are also linked to many diseases, including cancer. They are widely spread in extracellular and intracellular spaces, and their altered expression in cancer leads to tumor progression, metastasis, angiogenesis and stemness through different signalling pathways. Promoter methylation, microRNA, and histone modification constitute the epigenetic changes that regulate galectin activity in cancer. Our review discusses the concept of epigenetics in cancer and how the aforementioned factors i.e., promoter methylation, histone modification, change in miRNAs expression affect the glycomic changes in malignancies.
