APOBEC: A molecular driver in cervical cancer pathogenesis.
Review in Cancer letters, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 124 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Cervical cancer is one of the foremost common cancers in women. Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection remains a major risk factor of cervical cancer. In addition, numerous other genetic and epigenetic factors also are involved in the underlying pathogenesis of cervical cancer. Recently, it has been reported that apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide like (APOBEC), DNA-editing protein plays an important role in the molecular pathogenesis of cancer. Particularly, the APOBEC3 family was shown to induce tumor mutations by aberrant DNA editing mechanism. In general, APOBEC3 enzymes play a pivotal role in the deamination of cytidine to uridine in DNA and RNA to control diverse biological processes such as regulation of protein expression, innate immunity, and embryonic development. Innate antiviral activity of the APOBEC3 family members restrict retroviruses, endogenous retro-element, and DNA viruses including the HPV that is the leading risk factor for cervical cancer. This review briefly describes the pathogenesis of cervical cancer and discusses in detail the recent findings on the role of APOBEC in the molecular pathogenesis of cervical cancer.
