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

Small RNAs (sRNAs) are emerging as essential regulators of biological processes. However, several studies have reported that gymnosperms do not express appreciable amounts of 24-nt sRNAs, and conifers in particular may have a unique sRNA-silencing signature. Here, we compared the sRNA transcriptomes of Japanese larch somatic embryos (SE) and seedlings. SE sRNAs exhibited a length bias toward 24 nt, while seedlings showed a bias toward a 21-nt length. We also confirmed that larch is capable of producing 24-nt sRNAs based on a polyacrylamide gel analysis. The sRNA expression patterns varied according to developmental stage, which might be associated with Dicer-like 3 and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase2 (RDR2) levels. Our data suggest that many MIR loci that produce canonical microRNAs (miRNAs, 20-22 nt) and long sRNAs (23-26 nt) have dual functions; the latter were preferentially produced in SE compared to seedlings. However, the ratio of miRNAs to total sRNAs in seedlings was higher than in SE, and most miRNAs were upregulated in seedlings. Trans-acting small interfering RNAs (ta-siRNAs) generated from TAS3 triggered by miR390 were identified, and levels of the three detected ta-siRNAs peaked in mature embryos, which was not consistent with the lowest RDR6 level. These findings indicate that larch, and possibly other gymnosperms, shares a common sRNA pathway with other land plants, and that the sRNA distribution pattern varies according to developmental stage, which may be attributable to the expression of sRNA pathway genes.
