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

A novel RNA-mediated disease mechanism has emerged from studies on dominantly inherited neurological disorders caused by unstable microsatellite expansions in non-coding regions of the genome. These non-coding tandem repeat expansions trigger the production of unusual RNAs that gain a toxic function, which involves the formation of RNA repeat structures that interact with, and alter the activities of, various factors required for normal RNA processing as well as additional cellular functions. In this review, we explore the deleterious effects of toxic RNA expression and discuss the various model systems currently available for studying RNA gain-of-function in neurologic diseases. Common themes, including bidirectional transcription and repeat-associated non-ATG (RAN) translation, have recently emerged from expansion disease studies. These and other discoveries have highlighted the need for further investigations designed to provide the additional mechanistic insights essential for future therapeutic development.
