Prognostic implications of microRNA-107 in esophageal cancer: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in PeerJ, 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
Background: Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) imposes a heavy disease burden in China, accounting for over 50% of global cases and approximately 301,000 annual deaths. Current prognostic markers inadequately predict recurrence in early-stage patients. This study investigates microRNA-107 (miR-107) as a novel prognostic biomarker for ESCC. Methods: Tumor tissues ( Results: miR-107 expression was significantly lower in esophageal cancer tissues (0.801 ± 0.737) compared to adjacent non-cancerous tissues (1.390 ± 1.346), Conclusions: miR-107 downregulation is a robust predictor of aggressive ESCC phenotypes and poor survival. It holds promise as a clinical biomarker for risk stratification and personalized therapy. Future studies should validate these findings in multicenter cohorts and elucidate miR-107's functional mechanisms.
