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

Eukaryotes are divided into two major compartments: the nucleus where RNA is synthesized and processed, and the cytoplasm, where mRNA is translated into proteins. Although many different RNAs are made, only a subset is allowed access to the cytoplasm, primarily RNAs involved in protein synthesis (mRNA, tRNA, and rRNA). In contrast, nuclear retained transcripts are mostly long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) whose role in cell physiology has been a source of much investigation in the past few years. In addition, it is likely that many non-functional RNAs, which arise by spurious transcription and misprocessing of functional RNAs, are also retained in the nucleus and degraded. In this review, the main sequence features that dictate whether any particular mRNA or lncRNA is a substrate for retention in the nucleus, or export to the cytoplasm, are discussed. Although nuclear export is promoted by RNA-splicing due to the fact that the spliceosome can help recruit export factors to the mature RNA, nuclear export does not require splicing. Indeed, most stable unspliced transcripts are well exported and associate with these same export factors in a splicing-independent manner. In contrast, nuclear retention is promoted by specialized
