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
purposeCircular RNAs (circRNAs) play important roles in tumour progression. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of hsa_circ_0067717 (termed circRNA_0067717) promoting paclitaxel resistance in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
methodsWe assayed CNE-1 and HNE-2 parental cell lines and the corresponding paclitaxel-resistant NPC cell lines using circRNA microarrays. RNA pull-down assay, RNA immunoprecipitation, and RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization were used to identify the molecular mechanisms.
resultsHere, we confirm that circRNA_0067717 is significantly upregulated in NPC paclitaxel-resistant cells and is associated with paclitaxel resistance in NPC. Mechanistically, circRNA_0067717 functions as a scaffold for TRIM41 protein (a ubiquitin E3 ligase) and p53 protein. In nasopharyngeal carcinoma paclitaxel-resistant cells, the highly expressed circRNA_0067717 can bind to more TRIM41 and p53 protein, promoting TRIM41-induced p53 ubiquitination and degradation, resulting in a decrease in p53 protein level. Moreover, the 1-176 nt area of circRNA_0067717 and the 301-425 nt region of circRNA_0067717 are the binding sites for p53 and TRIM41, respectively. The resistance of NPC cells to paclitaxel can be reduced by blocking these binding regions of circRNA_0067717.
conclusionWe demonstrate that circRNA_0067717 acts as a scaffold for TRIM41 and p53, enhancing paclitaxel chemoresistance in NPC by promoting TRIM41-induced p53 degradation via ubiquitination.
