miRNAture-Computational Detection of microRNA Candidates.
Article in Genes, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Homology-based annotation of short RNAs, including microRNAs, is a difficult problem because their inherently small size limits the available information. Highly sensitive methods, including parameter optimized blast, nhmmer, or cmsearch runs designed to increase sensitivity inevitable lead to large numbers of false positives, which can be detected only by detailed analysis of specific features typical for a RNA family and/or the analysis of conservation patterns in structure-annotated multiple sequence alignments. The miRNAture pipeline implements a workflow specific to animal microRNAs that automatizes homology search and validation steps. The miRNAture pipeline yields very good results for a large number of "typical" miRBase families. However, it also highlights difficulties with atypical cases, in particular microRNAs deriving from repetitive elements and microRNAs with unusual, branched precursor structures and atypical locations of the mature product, which require specific curation by domain experts.
