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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a type of covalently closed, single-stranded circular noncoding RNA that can affect the expression of many protein-coding genes. Growing evidence has shown that circRNAs play critical roles in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and may have therapeutic potentials for this disease. CircRNAs play regulatory roles in neural functions and neurological disorders through diverse mechanisms, including acting as microRNA sponges or interacting with proteins to regulate selective splicing or transcription, as well as through epigenetic modification. In this review, we discuss the biogenesis and functions of circRNAs and the research progress on circRNAs in AD to advance the understanding of how circRNAs contribute to this neurological disorder.
