Evaluation of hsa_circ_0000018/let-7f-5p/ FAM96A axis in lung adenocarcinoma progression.
Article in Cancer biomarkers : section A of Disease markers, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) are critical regulators of lung adenocarcinoma (LA) progression. Although a molecular marker targeting hsa_circ_0000018 has been developed and used for diagnosing colon cancer, the role of this circRNA in LA progression has not been explored till now.
objectivesThis study aimed to elucidate the role and regulatory mechanisms of hsa_circ_0000018 in LA progression.
methodsLA tissues and corresponding adjacent non-tumor tissues were collected from 36 patients to confirm the levels of circRNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs), and messenger RNAs (mRNAs) using quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). We also cultured two LA cell lines (A549, PC-9), and the human normal lung epithelial cell line BEAS-2B. Cell function experiments were conducted to assess malignancy in LA cells, including proliferation, migration, and invasion, following forced hsa_circ_0000018 expression. The correlation between hsa_circ_0000018, let-7f-5p, and family with sequence similarity 96 member A (FAM96A) was confirmed by using starBase (miRNA-circRNA interaction database), luciferase assay, and western blotting.
resultsExpression of hsa_circ_0000018 and FAM96A was reduced, whereas that of let-7f-5p was upregulated in LA. Cell function assays revealed that upregulation of hsa_circ_0000018 had a suppressive effect on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of LA cells. Additionally, hsa_circ_0000018 sponge binds let-7f-5p, resulting in upregulation of FAM96A expression.
conclusionOur data reveal hsa_circ_0000018 as a tumor suppressor in LA that targets the let-7f-5p/FAM96A axis. Our findings enrich the known regulatory network of circRNAs in LA.
