Prostate cancer: Alternatively spliced mRNA transcripts in tumor progression and their uses as therapeutic targets.
Review in The international journal of biochemistry & cell biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Prostate cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer and second leading cause of cancer deaths among American men. Current therapies show early antitumor responses, but ultimately lead to treatment resistance, relapse and poorer survival in patients. Alternative RNA splicing, a cell mechanism increasing the proteome diversity by producing multiple transcripts from a single gene, has been associated with prostate cancer development/progression. Reports showed that many aberrant mRNA splice variants are upregulated in prostate cancer, promoting malignancy through enhanced proliferation, metastasis, tumor growth, anti-apoptosis, and/or treatment resistance. Here, we discuss the oncogenic properties of aberrant splicing mechanisms underlying prostate cancer pathogenesis, as well as the uses of the splicing variants as potential diagnostics and treatment targets. Finally, we discuss the pharmacologic and molecular approaches for targeting aberrant splicing mechanisms as effective therapies to correct the splicing errors and overcome the drug resistance, ultimately improving the clinical outcome of prostate cancer patients.
