Article in Cancer biology & therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 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
Circular RNA (circRNA) has been confirmed to play a vital role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) progression. However, the function and regulatory mechanism of hsa_circ_0012634 in PDAC progression remain unclear. Quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure the expression of hsa_circ_0012634, microRNA (miR)-147b and homeodomain interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2). Cell function was assessed by cell counting kit 8 assay, EdU assay, colony formation assay and flow cytometry. Glucose uptake and lactate production were evaluated to determine cell glycolysis ability. Protein expression was examined by western blot analysis. RNA interaction was confirmed by RNA pull-down assay and dual-luciferase reporter assay. Exosomes were isolated from serums and cell culture supernatant using ultracentrifugation and identified by transmission electron microscopy. Animal experiments were conducted using nude mice. Hsa_circ_0012634 was downregulated in PDAC tissues and cells, and its overexpression suppressed PDAC cell proliferation, glycolysis and enhanced apoptosis. MiR-147b was targeted by hsa_circ_0012634, and its inhibitors repressed PDAC cell growth and glycolysis. HIPK2 could be targeted by miR-147b, and hsa_circ_0012634 regulated miR-147b/HIPK2 to suppress PDAC cell progression. Hsa_circ_0012634 was lowly expressed in serum exosomes of PDAC patients. Exosomal hsa_circ_0012634 inhibited PDAC cell growth and glycolysis in vitro, as well as tumorigenesis in vivo. Exosomal hsa_circ_0012634 restrained PDAC progression via the miR-147b/HIPK2 pathway, confirming that hsa_circ_0012634 might serve as a diagnosis and treatment biomarker for PDAC.
