Circular RNAs: Non-Canonical Observations on Non-Canonical RNAs.
Article in Cells, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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 existence of circular RNA (circRNA) research in mainstream science can be attributed to the contemporary synergism of big data and keen attention to detail by several research groups worldwide. Since the re-emergence of these non-canonical RNA transcripts, seminal advances have been made in understanding their biogenesis, interactome, and functions in diverse fields and a myriad of human diseases. However, most research outputs to date have focused on the ability of highly stable circRNAs to interact with, and impact signalling through, microRNAs. This is likely to be the result of seminal papers in the field ascribing a few remarkable circRNAs as "miRNA sponges". However, the stoichiometric ratio between the (often-lowly-expressed) circRNA and their (commonly-more-abundant) target is rarely in favour of a biologically relevant and functional consequence of these interactions. It is time for yet another revolution in circRNA research to uncover functions beyond their documented ability to bind miRNAs. This Special Issue aims to highlight non-canonical functions for this non-canonical family of RNA molecules.
