Extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA) characteristics in the bile and plasma of advanced perihilar cholangiocarcinoma patients and the construction of an eccDNA-related gene prognosis model.
Article in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Extrachromosomal DNAs (eccDNAs) frequently carry amplified oncogenes. This investigation aimed to examine the occurrence and role of eccDNAs in individuals diagnosed with advanced perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) who exhibited distinct prognostic outcomes. Five patients with poor survival outcomes and five with better outcomes were selected among patients who received first-line hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy from June 2021 to June 2022. The extracted eccDNAs were amplified for high-throughput sequencing. Genes associated with the differentially expressed eccDNAs were analyzed using Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses. The differentially expressed bile eccDNA-related genes were used to construct a prognostic model. Across all 10 patients, a total of 19,024 and 3,048 eccDNAs were identified in bile and plasma, respectively. The concentration of eccDNA detected in the bile was 9-fold higher than that in plasma. The chromosome distribution of the eccDNAs were similar between bile and matched plasma. GO and KEGG pathway analyses showed enrichment in the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and Wnt/β-catenin pathways in patients with poor survival outcomes. According to the prognostic model constructed by eccDNA-related genes, the high-risk group of cholangiocarcinoma patients displayed significantly shorter overall survival (
