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

Loss-of-function mutations in the ribonuclease angiogenin are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Angiogenin has been shown to cleave transfer RNAs during stress to produce 'transfer-derived stress-induced RNAs'. Stress-induced tRNA cleavage is preserved from single-celled organisms to humans indicating it represents part of a highly conserved stress response. However, to date, the role of tRNA cleavage in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis remains to be fully elucidated. To this end, we performed small RNA sequencing on a human astrocytoma cell line to identify the complete repertoire of tRNA fragments generated by angiogenin. We found that only a specific subset of tRNAs is cleaved by angiogenin and identified 5'ValCAC transfer-derived stress-induced RNA to be secreted from neural cells. 5'ValCAC was quantified in spinal cord and serum from SOD1
