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

miRNA variants (termed isomiRs) have been reported as potential functional molecules that may affect miRNA stability or target selection. The aims of the present study were to comprehensively survey and characterize non-template nucleotides (NTNs) and isomiR repertoires in miRNAs. Over 50 % of the NTNs were located in the 3' ends (also termed 3' additions), followed by the 5' ends and adjacent positions to 5' and 3' ends. The similar distributions of NTNs and isomiR repertoires might be detected between homologous or clustered miRNAs. miRNA might be stably expressed based on the typical analysis, but its isomiRs might be strongly up- or down-regulated. IsomiRs with novel seed sequences were mainly derived from "seed shifting" events in 5' isomiRs, NTNs in 5' ends or in seed sequences. IsomiRs from a miRNA locus or homologous miRNA loci maybe have the same seed sequences, but they would have various enrichment levels and 3' ends. Interestingly, isomiR species with novel seed sequences via NTNs in the seed region were always stably expressed. These novel seed sequences could lead to novel functional roles through driving the potential novel target mRNAs. Integrated predicted target mRNAs and further microarray validation showed that these isomiRs have versatile biological roles. Collectively, multiple isomiR products and miRNA maturation processes provide opportunities to perform versatile roles in the regulatory network, which further enriches and complicates the regulation of biological processes.
