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

Chemical modifications to nucleobases have a great influence on various cellular processes, by making gene regulation more complex, thus indicating their profound impact on aspects of heredity, growth, and disease. Here, we provide the first genome-wide map of 5-formyluracil (5fU) in living tissues and evaluate the potential roles for 5fU in genomics. We show that an azido derivative of (2-benzimidazolyl)acetonitrile has high selectivity for enriching 5fU-containing genomic DNA. The results have demonstrated the feasibility of using this method to determine the genome-wide distribution of 5fU. Intriguingly, most 5fU sites were found in intergenic regions and introns. Also, distribution of 5fU in human thyroid carcinoma tissues is positively correlated with binding sites of POLR2A protein, which indicates that 5fU may distributed around POLR2A-binding sites.
