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

RNA-Seq is increasingly used for the diagnosis of patients, targeting of therapies and for single cell transcriptomics. These applications require cost effective, fast and reliable ways of capturing and analyzing gene expression data. Here we compared Lexogen's QuantSeq which captures only the 3' end of RNA transcripts and Illumina's TruSeq, using both Tophat2 and Salmon for gene quantification. We also compared these results to microarray. This analysis was performed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells stimulated with Poly (I:C), a viral mimic that induces innate antiviral responses. This provides a well-established model to determine if RNA-Seq and QuantSeq identify the same biological signatures. Gene expression levels in QuantSeq and RNA-Seq were strongly correlated (Spearman's rho ~0.8), Salmon and Tophat2 (Spearman's rho > 0.9). There was high consistency in protein coding genes, non-concordant genes had a high proportion of shorter, non-coding features. RNA-Seq identified more differentially expressed genes than QuantSeq, both methods outperformed microarray. The same key biological signals emerged in each of these approaches. We conclude that QuantSeq, coupled with a fast quantification method such as Salmon, should provide a viable alternative to traditional RNA-Seq in many applications and may be of particular value in the study of the 3'UTR region of mRNA.
