RNA modifications in cancer: regulators of tumor evolution and therapeutic response.
Review in Molecular cancer, 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
RNA modifications, such as N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N1-methyladenosine (m1A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), 7-methylguanosine (m7G), pseudouridine (Ψ), and adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing, constitute a dynamic epitranscriptomic network that profoundly regulates RNA metabolism and gene expression. Their dysregulation is increasingly recognized as a hallmark of cancer. This review critically synthesizes the multifaceted roles of RNA modifications to bridge the gap between descriptive epitranscriptomic mapping and functional tumor biology. We systematically evaluate how writers, readers, and erasers dictate transcript stability and translation efficiency, driving tissue-specific tumor evolution across diverse malignancies. Crucially, we explore the intersection of RNA modifications and the tumor immune microenvironment, detailing their mechanisms in orchestrating immune evasion, altering antigen presentation, and regulating immune checkpoints. Furthermore, we examine how epitranscriptomic reprogramming dictates cellular responses to chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted treatments, and immunotherapy. By comprehensively analyzing these mechanisms, this review aims to facilitate the translation of epitranscriptomic findings into clinical applications, laying a theoretical foundation for targeted anti-tumor strategies.
