Estimating the fraction of non-coding RNAs in mammalian transcriptomes.
Article in Bioinformatics and biology insights, 2008. 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
Recent studies of mammalian transcriptomes have identified numerous RNA transcripts that do not code for proteins; their identity, however, is largely unknown. Here we explore an approach based on sequence randomness patterns to discern different RNA classes. The relative z-score we use helps identify the known ncRNA class from the genome, intergene and intron classes. This leads us to a fractional ncRNA measure of putative ncRNA datasets which we model as a mixture of genuine ncRNAs and other transcripts derived from genomic, intergenic and intronic sequences. We use this model to analyze six representative datasets identified by the FANTOM3 project and two computational approaches based on comparative analysis (RNAz and EvoFold). Our analysis suggests fewer ncRNAs than estimated by DNA sequencing and comparative analysis, but the verity of our approach and its prediction requires more extensive experimental RNA data.
