1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Glioblastoma (GBM) is an exceptionally aggressive and malignant central nervous system tumor with a poor prognosis. Studies suggest that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play a vital role in GBM progression. Exosomes, key mediators of intercellular communication, carry circRNAs that may regulate this process. The present study aimed to investigate how circRAD18 modulates GBM cell proliferation, migration and invasion through the miR‑1231/LUC7L2 axis and to evaluate the potential of exosomal circRAD18 as a diagnostic biomarker for GBM. Bioinformatics analyses identified differentially expressed circRAD18, miR‑1231 and LUC7L2 in GBM and predicted their interactions. Expression levels were assessed using western blot analysis, immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription‑quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Regulatory mechanisms were examined via dual‑luciferase reporter assays, RNA pull‑down assays, CCK‑8 assays, wound healing assays, Transwell assays, fluorescence
