CeRNA plays a key role in the induction of cardiovascular diseases by environmental endocrine disruptor exposure.
Review in Environmental health and preventive medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundCompeting endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) represent a novel mechanism involving interactions among different RNAs, playing a crucial role in the gene regulatory networks throughout the life cycle. CeRNAs are implicated in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) caused by environmental endocrine disruptors (EDCs); however, existing studies are not yet systematic, and the mechanisms underlying their effects remain unclear.
objectiveThis study aimed to systematically elucidate the role of ceRNAs in EDC-induced CVDs and provide valuable insights regarding disease mechanisms and developing new therapeutic strategies.
methodsComprehensive searches for research related to EDC-induced cardiovascular diseases were conducted across PubMed, Web of Science, and ScienceDirect databases. Eligible studies were screened, and those containing information on the regulatory mechanisms of ceRNAs were extracted and analyzed.
resultsNotably, ceRNA-mediated effects of EDC exposure on CVDs mainly occurred through four pathways. First, upon exposure to EDCs, micro RNAs, messenger RNAs (mRNAs), long-chain non-coding RNAs, circular RNAs are differentially regulated, activating signaling pathways such as nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase/nuclear factor-κB, which lead to atherosclerosis. Second, EDC exposure alters mRNAs and proteins involved in ceRNA networks, activating the PTEN-induced kinase 1/Parkin and transforming growth factor-β1/LIM domain kinase 1 signaling pathways, leading to cardiomyopathy. Third, EDCs increase ceRNA-related mRNA levels, thereby raising the risk of CVDs. Lastly, ceRNAs participate in EDC exposure to upregulate nitric oxide or reactive oxygen species, ultimately causing vascular diseases.
conclusionAltogether, the findings of this study show that ceRNAs hold significant potential for identifying target genes and signaling pathways associated with CVDs, which may facilitate deeper studies into CVD management.
