MicroRNA-99 family in cancer: molecular mechanisms for clinical applications.
Review in PeerJ, 2025. 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
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNA sequences that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. The miR-99 family, which is highly evolutionarily conserved, comprises three homologs: miR-99a, miR-99b, and miR-100. Its members are under-expressed in most cancerous tissues, suggesting their cancer-repressing properties in multiple cancers; however, in some contexts, they also promote malignant lesion progression. MiR-99 family members target numerous genes involved in various tumor-related processes such as tumorigenesis, proliferation, cell-cycle regulation, apoptosis, invasion, and metastasis. We review the recent research on this family, summarize its implications in cancer, and explore its potential as a biomarker and cancer therapeutic target. This review contributes to the clinical translation of the miR-99 family members.
