Circular RNA as a New Vaccine Platform: Considerations, Challenges, and Perspectives.
Review in Vaccines, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 RNA (circRNA) has emerged as an alternative RNA modality for vaccine development due to its covalently closed structure and enhanced molecular stability compared with linear messenger RNA (mRNA). Following the clinical success of mRNA vaccines, circRNA-based platforms have gained attention in both prophylactic and cancer immunization. Unlike linear mRNA, circRNA relies on cap-independent translation and is commonly produced through in vitro transcription coupled with ribozyme-mediated self-circularization. In prophylactic vaccination, circRNA vaccines have demonstrated sustained antigen availability, robust humoral and cellular immune responses, and flexibility in multivalent designs and targeted delivery strategies that support germinal center reactions and neutralizing antibody generation. In cancer vaccines, circRNA has been applied to tumor-associated antigens, neoantigens, and non-canonical peptides, with a primary focus on inducing potent antigen-specific CD8
