RETRACTION: Mechanism of p27 Upregulation Induced by Downregulation of Cathepsin B and Upar in Glioma.
Article in Molecular oncology, 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
retractionS. Gopinath, K. Alapati, R. R. Malla, C. S. Gondi, S. Mohanam, D. H. Dinh, and J. S. Rao, "Mechanism of p27 Upregulation Induced by Downregulation of Cathepsin B and Upar in Glioma," Molecular Oncology 5, no. 5 (2011): 426-437, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.molonc.2011.07.004. The above article, published online on 26 July 2011 in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com), has been retracted by agreement between the journal Editor in Chief, Kevin Ryan; the Federation of European Biochemical Societies; and John Wiley and Sons Ltd. Following publication, concerns were raised by a third party regarding the duplications of image elements Figure 7, as well as duplicated western blot bands between Figures 4C and 6B, between Figures 1C and 4C, within Figure 3A and within Figure 6A. Internal investigation confirmed the duplications in these figures and additionally identified undeclared splice marks within Figures 2D and 4C, duplicated western blot bands between Figure 3A and Figure 4A of a previous publication with shared authors (DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0011668) where the same bands were presented in a different scientific context. The retraction has been agreed because the concerns were determined to affect the authenticity and reliability of the data and results presented. The authors have been informed of the retraction decision where possible; however, current contact details could not be verified.
