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

backgroundAlternative splicing (AS) is a regulatory mechanism used to create many forms of mature messengers RNAs (mRNAs) from the same gene. Sequencing of RNA (RNA-Seq) is an advanced technology, which has been utilized by different studies to find AS mechanisms in head and neck cancer (HNC). Hitherto, there is no available review that could inform us of the major findings from these studies. Hence, we aim to perform a systematic literature search following PRISMA guidelines to study AS events in HNC identified through RNA-Seq studies.

resultsA total of five records were identified that utilized RNA-Seq data for identifying AS events in HNC. Five software was used in these records to identify AS events. Two genes influenced by AS i.e. MLL3 and RPS9 were found to be common in 4 out of 5 records. Likewise, 38 genes were identified to be similar in at least 3 records.

conclusionsAlternative splicing in HNC is a multifaceted regulatory mechanism of gene expression. It can be studied via RNA-Seq using different bioinformatics tools. Genes MLL3, as well as RPS9, were repeatedly found to be associated with HNC, however needs further functional validation.
