Production and Role of Nitric Oxide in Endometrial Cancer.
Review in Antioxidants (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
Endometrial cancer ranks as the fourth most common cancer among women in the United States. While early-stage treatment is generally effective with a cure rate of approximately 90%, the five-year survival rate dramatically decreases to 10-15% for advanced-stage diagnoses. Consequently, ongoing research seeks to improve treatment outcomes for endometrial cancer. Nitric oxide (NO) is implicated in various biological processes, including cancer progression, and is believed to play a significant role in human endometrial cancer. However, its specific function remains controversial. This study aims to elucidate the effects of NO in endometrial cancer through a comprehensive literature review. A thorough review of the literature was conducted using Cochrane Libraries, EMBASE, Google Scholar, PubMed, and SCOPUS databases to assess the induction and role of NO in the development of endometrial cancer. Out of 33 initially reviewed articles, 7 studies were included in the final review after excluding those unrelated to endometrial cancer or NO. Of these, six studies (85.7%) reported increased NO levels in endometrial cancer, whereas one study (14.3%) noted decreased NO levels or a defensive mechanism role. NO production was linked to tumor-promoting effects such as invasiveness, metastasis, angiogenesis, interaction with omental adipose stromal cells (O-ASCs), adipogenesis, and mitochondrial suppression. Conversely, NO also exhibited tumor-suppressive effects, including cell-cycle arrest, apoptosis induction, promotion of cancer stem-like cells, and upregulation of tumor suppressor genes like
