circFNDC3B promotes esophageal squamous cell carcinoma progression by targeting MYO5A via miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p.
Article in BMC cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
backgroundEsophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is a prevalent malignant tumor worldwide. Circular RNA (circRNA) is of great value in tumorigenesis progression. However, the mechanism of circFNDC3B in ESCC remains to be clarified.
methodsFirstly, the circular characteristics of circFNDC3B were evaluated by Actinomycin D and RNase R measurements. The functions of circFNDC3B in ESCC cells were examined by CCK-8, EdU and flow cytometry. Subsequently, the molecular mechanism of circFNDC3B was explained using luciferase reporter gene detection. Finally, we constructed xenograft model to prove the role of circFNDC3B in vivo.
resultsOur study revealed that circFNDC3B was more stable than its linear RNA and prominently upregulated in ESCC. Functional findings suggested that silencing of circFNDC3B reduced the proliferation and enhanced apoptosis of ESCC cells in vitro. Meanwhile, knockdown of circFNDC3B attenuated tumor progression in vivo. Next, miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p was discovered to bind circFNDC3B. miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p reversed the promotive effect on cell proliferation and the inhibitory effect on cell apoptosis of circFNDC3B. MYO5A was a downstream target of miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p. CircFNDC3B served as a sponge for miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p and alleviated the prohibitory effect of miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p on MYO5A, which accelerated ESCC progression.
conclusioncircFNDC3B positively adjusted the MYO5A expression via spongy miR-370-3p/miR-136-5p, hence achieving the cancer-promoting effect on ESCC. circFNDC3B was a prospective diagnosis marker for ESCC.
