The regulatory role of m6A in cancer metastasis.
Review in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Metastasis remains a primary cause of cancer-related mortality, with its intricate mechanisms continuing to be uncovered through advancing research. Among the various regulatory processes involved, RNA modification has emerged as a critical epitranscriptomic mechanism influencing cancer metastasis. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), recognized as one of the most prevalent and functionally significant RNA modifications, plays a central role in the regulation of RNA metabolism. In this review, we explore the multifaceted role of m6A in the different stages of cancer metastasis, including epithelial-mesenchymal transition, invasion, migration, and colonization. In addition to summarizing the current state of our understanding, we offer insights into how m6A modifications modulate key oncogenic pathways, highlighting the implications of recent discoveries for therapeutic interventions. Furthermore, we critically assess the limitations of previous studies and propose areas for future research, including the potential for targeting m6A as a novel approach in anti-metastatic therapies. Our analysis provides a comprehensive understanding of the regulatory landscape of m6A in metastasis, offering directions for continued exploration in this rapidly evolving field.
