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

The 'junk DNA' that has haunted human genetics for a long time now turns out to hold enormous hidden treasures. As species had their genomes and transcriptomes sequenced, there are an overwhelming number of lncRNA transcripts being reported, however, less than 100 of them have been functionally characterized. DNA damage is recognized and quickly repaired by the cell, with increased expression of numerous genes involved in DNA repair. Most of the time the studies have focused only on proteins involved in these signaling pathways. However, recent studies have implied that lncRNAs can be broadly induced by DNA damage and regulate DNA repair processes by various mechanisms. In this paper, we focus on recent advances in the identification and functional characterization of novel lncRNAs participating in DNA double strand break repair.
