Pan-cancer analysis of Methyltransferase-like 16 (METTL16) and validated in colorectal cancer.
Article in Aging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Human Methyltransferase-like 16(METTL16) is an independent N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase. Previous studies have proven METTL16 been linked with some types of cancers. However, comparative studies of the relevance of METTL16 across diverse tumors remain sparse. We comprehensively investigated the effect of METTL16 expression on tumor prognosis across human malignancies by analyzing multiple cancer-related databases like Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) and human protein atlas (HPA). Bioinformatics data indicated that METTL16 was overexpressed in most of these human malignancies and was significantly associated with the prognosis of patients with cancer, especially in colorectal cancer (CRC).
