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

Altered expression levels of protein-coding genes and microRNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Huntington's disease (HD). The involvement of other ncRNAs, especially long ncRNAs (lncRNA), is being realized recently and the related knowledge is still rudimentary. Using small RNA sequencing and PCR arrays we observed perturbations in the levels of 12 ncRNAs in HD mouse brain, eight of which had human homologs. Of these, Meg3, Neat1, and Xist showed a consistent and significant increase in HD cell and animal models. Transient knock-down of Meg3 and Neat1 in cell models of HD led to a significant decrease of aggregates formed by mutant huntingtin and downregulation of the endogenous Tp53 expression. Understanding Meg3 and Neat1 functions in the context of HD pathogenesis is likely to open up new strategies to control the disease.
