Circ_0056618 enhances PRRG4 expression by competitively binding to miR-411-5p to promote the malignant progression of colorectal cancer.
Article in Molecular and cellular biochemistry, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
The purpose of this paper was to explore the role of circ_0056618 and associated mechanisms in colorectal cancer (CRC). The expression of circ_0056618, proline rich and Gla domain 4 (PRRG4) mRNA and miR-411-5p was measured by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR).The protein levels of PRRG4 and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT)-related markers were detected by western blot. Cell proliferation was assessed by cell counting kit-8, EdU, and colony formation assays. Cell migration and invasion were assessed by transwell assay. Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry assay. The putative relationship between miR-411-5p and circ_0056618 or PRRG4 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter assay. The effects of circ_0056618 on tumor growth in vivo were determined by animal study. Circ_0056618 and PRRG4 was upregulated, while miR-411-5p was downregulated in CRC tumor tissues and cells. Circ_0056618 knockdown or PRRG4 knockdown inhibited CRC cell proliferation, migration/invasion, EMT, and survival. Circ_0056618 positively modulated PRRG4 expression by targeting miR-411-5p. MiR-411-5p absence or PRRG4 overexpression could rescue circ_0056618 knockdown-induced inhibition on proliferation, migration/invasion, and EMT in CRC cells. Animal assay showed circ_0056618 knockdown impeded tumor growth in vivo. Circ_0056618 promoted CRC growth and development by upregulating PRRG4 expression via competitively targeting miR-411-5p.
