Dysregulated circRNA Expression in Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy.
Article in Neuromolecular medicine, 2026. 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
Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is one of the most common idiopathic generalized epilepsy syndromes, yet its molecular pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable non-coding RNAs with important regulatory roles and increasing relevance in neurological disorders. In this study, we investigated for the first time the association between selected circRNAs (hsa_circ_0000218, hsa_circ_0000229, hsa_circ_0000249, hsa_circ_0002010, and hsa_circ_0000143) and JME. Total RNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples of 41 patients with JME and 41 healthy controls, followed by RNase R treatment and quantitative real-time PCR analysis. Expression levels of hsa_circ_0002010 and hsa_circ_0000143 were significantly upregulated in patients with JME compared with controls (both p < 0.001), whereas hsa_circ_0000249 was significantly downregulated (p < 0.001). No significant differences were observed for hsa_circ_0000218 or hsa_circ_0000229. Sex-specific analyses revealed differential expression patterns, and hsa_circ_0002010 and hsa_circ_0000249 were associated with drug resistance. Our findings suggest that certain circRNAs may be involved in molecular pathways related to JME and may provide preliminary information to inform future studies exploring their potential relevance in JME.
