Hsa_circ_ROBO1 competes with miR-324-3p and upregulates NME1 to promote tumor metastasis in nasopharyngeal carcinoma.
Article in Discover oncology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundThis work aims to explore circ_ROBO1's function in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
methodscirc_ROBO1 expression in NPC tissues and cell lines was measured. The regulation of circ_ROBO1 and/or miR-324-3p on the proliferation, migration, invasion, and apoptosis of NPC cells was investigated by functional experiments. The interplay between circ_ROBO1, miR-324-3p, and NME1 was explored. Tumor growth and metastasis were studied in mice.
resultscirc_ROBO1 was overexpressed in NPC. Knockdown of circ_ROBO1 repressed proliferation, migration, and invasion and induced apoptosis of NPC cells. Loss of circ_ROBO1 reduced tumor growth and metastasis in mice. circ_ROBO1 competed with miR-324-3p to upregulate NME1. Lowering miR-324-3p expression impaired the effect of knockdown of circ_ROBO1on NPC cells.
conclusionOverexpressed circ_ROBO1 promotes NPC development by modifying the miR-324-3p/NME1 axis.
