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

Traditional epitranscriptomics relies on capturing a single RNA modification by antibody or chemical treatment, combined with short-read sequencing to identify its transcriptomic location. This approach is labor-intensive and may introduce experimental artifacts. Direct sequencing of native RNA using Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) can allow for directly detecting the RNA base modifications, although these modifications might appear as sequencing errors. The percent Error of Specific Bases (%ESB) was higher for native RNA than unmodified RNA, which enabled the detection of ribonucleotide modification sites. Based on the %ESB differences, we developed a bioinformatic tool, epitranscriptional landscape inferring from glitches of ONT signals (ELIGOS), that is based on various types of synthetic modified RNA and applied to rRNA and mRNA. ELIGOS is able to accurately predict known classes of RNA methylation sites (AUC > 0.93) in rRNAs from Escherichiacoli, yeast, and human cells, using either unmodified in vitro transcription RNA or a background error model, which mimics the systematic error of direct RNA sequencing as the reference. The well-known DRACH/RRACH motif was localized and identified, consistent with previous studies, using differential analysis of ELIGOS to study the impact of RNA m6A methyltransferase by comparing wild type and knockouts in yeast and mouse cells. Lastly, the DRACH motif could also be identified in the mRNA of three human cell lines. The mRNA modification identified by ELIGOS is at the level of individual base resolution. In summary, we have developed a bioinformatic software package to uncover native RNA modifications.
