Mapping the MicroRNA Landscape of Cadmium Exposure: A Bibliometric and Bioinformatics Analysis of Molecular Targets and Regulatory Pathways.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 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
Cadmium is a persistent toxic metal that promotes oxidative stress, inflammation, and epigenetic dysregulation; however, the research landscape and recurrent microRNA (miRNA)-mediated responses associated with cadmium exposure remain incompletely characterized. This study integrated bibliometric, structured content, and bioinformatics analyses to identify major research trends and recurrent miRNA signals. PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science Core Collection were searched using predefined cadmium- and miRNA-related search terms, yielding 1511 source records. After language/document-type filtering and cross-database deduplication, 817 unique records remained for screening, of which 286 publications formed the final bibliometric corpus. Author-keyword co-occurrence analysis was performed using a minimum occurrence threshold of ≥3, with ≥5 used as a sensitivity analysis. Cadmium and microRNA remained the dominant thematic core, while heavy-metal toxicity, apoptosis, and cadmium-stress responses represented the most recurrent secondary themes. In the final human-relevant biological evidence corpus (
