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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently closed single-stranded RNA molecules generated by back-splicing events of precursor mRNAs, characterized by superior structural stability, strict tissue specificity, and diverse regulatory functions. Ferroptosis is an iron-dependent, lipid peroxidation-driven regulated cell death (RCD) distinct from classical apoptosis and necrosis; remodeling of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) directly modulates cancer progression and therapeutic efficacy. Both are core targets in cancer biology and translational oncology. Emerging evidence shows circRNAs act as "molecular bridges" to simultaneously regulate ferroptosis and anti-tumor immunity via miRNA sponging, protein interaction/scaffolding, and
