Identification of new aptamer BC-3 targeting RPS7 from rapid screening for bladder carcinoma.
Article in Genes & diseases, 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
Aptamers, short single DNA or RNA oligonucleotides, have shown immense application potential as molecular probes for the early diagnosis and therapy of cancer. However, conventional cell-SELEX technologies for aptamer discovery are time-consuming and laborious. Here we discovered a new aptamer BC-3 by using an improved rapid X-Aptamer selection process for human bladder carcinoma, for which there is no specific molecular probe yet. We show that BC-3 exhibited excellent affinity in bladder cancer cells but not normal cells. We demonstrate that BC-3 displayed high selectivity for tumor cells over their normal counterparts
