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 recognized as functional non-coding transcripts; however, emerging evidence has revealed that some synthetic circRNAs generate functional peptides or proteins. Additionally, the diverse biological functions of circRNAs include acting as miRNA-binding sponges, RNA-binding protein regulators, and protein translation templates. Previously, we found that circular RNA circFAM188B is a stable circular RNA and differentially expressed between broiler chickens and layers during embryonic skeletal muscle development. In this study, we found that circFAM188B exhibited a unique pattern of sharply decreased expression from embryonic day 10 (E10) to Day 35 (D35) after hatching. Our experimental results showed that circFAM188B promotes the proliferation, but inhibits the differentiation of chicken skeletal muscle satellite cells (SMSCs). Bioinformatic analysis revealed circFAM188B contain an opening reading frame (ORF) which translate into circFAM188B-103aa, internal ribosome entry site (IRES) analysis further confirmed the coding potential of circFAM188B. In addition, western blot assay detected a flag tagged circFAM188B-103aa, and several peptides of circFAM188B-103aa were detected by LC-MS/MS analysis. We further verified that the role of circFAM188B-103aa in chicken myogenesis is consistent with that of its parent transcript circFAM188B, which facilitates proliferation, but represses differentiation of chicken SMSC. Taken together, these results suggested that a novel protein circFAM188B-103aa encoded by circFAM188B that promotes the proliferation but inhibits the differentiation of chicken SMSCs.
