Harnessing the Loop: The Perspective of Circular RNA in Modern Therapeutics.
Review in Vaccines, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as a transformative class of RNA therapeutics, distinguished by their closed-loop structure conferring nuclease resistance, reduced immunogenicity, and sustained translational activity. While challenges in pharmacokinetic control and manufacturing standardization require resolution, emerging synergies between computational design tools and modular delivery platforms are accelerating clinical translation. In this review, we synthesize recent advances in circRNA therapeutics, with a focused analysis of their stability and immunogenic properties in vaccine and drug development. Notably, key synthesis strategies, delivery platforms, and AI-driven optimization methods enabling scalable production are discussed. Moreover, we summarize preclinical and emerging clinical studies that underscore the potential of circRNA in vaccine development and protein replacement therapies. As both a promising expression vehicle and programmable regulatory molecule, circRNA represents a versatile platform poised to advance next-generation biologics and precision medicine.
