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

objectiveLong non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are emerging as novel biomarkers for a variety of chronic conditions including autoimmune disease. PAXgene Blood RNA tubes are routinely used in clinical research and molecular diagnostic development to capture RNA profiles in peripheral whole blood. While the stability of mRNA expression profiles captured using PAXgene tubes has been documented previously, no previous work has determined the stability of lncRNA expression profiles observed in PAXgene tubes stored at - 80 °C. Here we sought to determine the effects on lncRNA expression profiles following - 80 °C storage of total RNA templates, cDNA synthesized using fresh or frozen total RNA template, and the impact of freeze-thaw cycles on both total RNA and cDNA obtained from PAXgene tubes.

resultsWe find that storage of whole blood in PAXgene tubes, total RNA and cDNA for up to 1 year at - 80 °C or up to ten total RNA or cDNA freeze-thaw cycles do not significantly alter lncRNA expression profiles compared to baseline. As monthly expression profiles were determined, some month to month lncRNA expression variability was observed. However, all monthly observations fell within the 95% confidence interval calculated at baseline.
