Vasculogenic mimicry in human cancers associated with chronic high-risk human papillomavirus infection.
Review in Future oncology (London, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) allows tumor cells to form vessel-like channels, promoting growth, metastasis, and therapy resistance. Persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV), mainly types 16 and 18, is a key factor in various cancers, including anogenital and head and neck cancers. VM has been documented in cervical cancer and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), but its role in other HPV-associated cancers remains unexplored. This review summarizes literature published between October 2024 and April 2025 in PubMed and Google Scholar, focusing on VM in HPV-related cancers. General mechanisms highlighted include epithelial-mesenchymal transition, hypoxia, and activation of STAT3 and PI3K/AKT pathways. Molecular regulators include TXNDC5, CHI3L1, erythropoietin, and microRNAs miR-124 and miR-29b in cervical cancer; and collagen XVI, LGR5, ALDH1, Beclin 1, VE-cadherin, CD44, HIF-1α, and SOX7 in OSCC. From a translational perspective, elucidating the molecular regulators of VM could reveal therapeutic opportunities through strategies targeting specific signaling pathways in tumor cells.
