The Emerging Role of Transcription-Associated Cyclin-Dependent Kinases in Gastrointestinal Tumors.
Review in Cancers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Transcription-associated cyclin-dependent kinases (tCDKs) precisely control the gene transcription process (initiation, elongation, and termination) by mediating RNA polymerase II phosphorylation. In several cancers, disrupted transcriptional control is emerging as a hallmark. In this review we summarize research studies of tCDKs' role in gastrointestinal (GI) tumors, particularly, in the biology of esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, and hepatobiliary cancers. Across these tumor types, tCDKs are implicated as activators of super enhancer (SE) regions and contribute to the "transcriptional addiction" that not only drives cancer cell growth but is also attributed to therapeutic vulnerabilities. Overall, expression of tCDKs is increased in GI tumor tissues, indicating a rational target for therapeutics. We further describe emerging approaches, including genetic manipulation, small-molecule inhibitors or targeted protein degradation that disrupt tCDK functions in GI malignancies. We conclude by describing key challenges in targeting tCDKs and future treatment directions.
