Emerging roles of circular RNAs in tuberculosis.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a major global health issue, resulting in around 1.5 million people deaths each year. Better diagnostic and therapeutic tools are urgently needed. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a new class of noncoding RNAs with a covalently closed structure, and exhibit a tissue-, cell-, and developmental stage-specific expression pattern. Recently, circRNAs were thought to be regulatory molecules implicated in the onset and progression of a series of human diseases including tuberculosis. In tuberculosis, circRNAs have been shown to regulate host anti-TB immune responses, such as decreasing monocyte apoptosis, enhancing autophagy and promoting macrophage polarization. Importantly, circRNAs are physically stable and abundant in several types of body fluids. Therefore they are considered as promising minimally-invasive biomarkers. In this review, we focus on the recent advances in the immune regulatory roles of circRNAs, as well as their potential diagnostic value in TB.
