Article in International journal of biological sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 12 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
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is considered the most prevalent RNA epigenetic regulator in cancer. FTO, an m6A demethylase, has been implicated in contributing to the progression of various cancers by up-regulating the expression of multiple oncogenes. However, studies exploring its impact on lipid metabolism in cancer, especially in pNENs, remain scarce. In this study, we demonstrated that FTO was up-regulated in pNENs and played a critical role in tumor growth and lipid metabolism. Mechanistically, we discovered that FTO over-expression increased the expression of APOE in an m6A-IGF2BP2-dependent manner, leading to dysregulation of lipid metabolism. Furthermore, we found APOE could activate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, thereby enhancing lipid metabolism and proliferative capabilities, by orchestrating the state of FASN ubiquitination. In conclusion, our study reveals the FTO/IGF2BP2/APOE/FASN/mTOR axis as a mechanism underlying aberrant m6A modification in lipid metabolism and provides new insights into the molecular basis for developing therapeutic strategies for pNENs treatment.
