1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Despite the prevalence of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is high, the limited early detection and management of these tumors are restricted since there is an absence of reliable and precise diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Exosomes transport functional molecules for facilitating intercellular communication, especially in the tumor microenvironment, indicating their potential as cancer biomarkers and therapeutic targets. Circular RNA (circRNA), a type of non-coding RNA possessing a covalently closed loop structure, substantial abundance, and tissue-specific expression patterns, is stably enriched in exosomes. In recent years, significant breakthroughs have been made in research on exosomal circRNA in NSCLC. This review briefly introduces the biogenesis, characterizations, and functions of circRNAs and exosomes, and systematically describes the biological functions and mechanisms of exosomal circRNAs in NSCLC. In addition, this study summarizes their role in the progression of NSCLC and discusses their clinical significance as biomarkers and therapeutic targets for NSCLC.
