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

The disorders of puberty have shown negative outcomes on health of mammals, and the hypothalamus is thought to be the main regulator of puberty by releasing GnRH. Many studies show that the circular RNAs (circRNAs) might be implicated in the timing of puberty in mammals. However, the circRNAs in the hypothalamus of gilts have not been explored. To profile the changes and biological functions of circRNAs in the hypothalamus during the onset of puberty, RNA-seq was utilized to establish pre-, in-, and post-pubertal hypothalamic circRNAs profiles. In this study, the functions of hypothalamic circRNAs were enriched in the signaling pathway of neurotrophin, progesterone-mediated oocyte maturation, oocyte meiosis, insulin, ErbB, and mTOR, which have been highly suggested to be involved in the timing of puberty. Furthermore, 53 circRNAs were identified to be putative hypothalamus-specific expressed circRNAs, and some of them were exclusively expressed in the one of three pubertal stages. Moreover, 22 differentially expressed circRNAs were identified and chosen to construct the circRNA-miRNA-gene network. Moreover, 10 circRNAs were found to be driven by six puberty-related genes (
