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

Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are involved in various biological processes, including gene expression, development, and disease. Here, we identify a novel consensus sequence of a cis-element involved in long ncRNA (lncRNA) transcription and demonstrate that lncRNA transcription from this cis-element activates meiotic recombination via chromatin remodeling. In the fission yeast fbp1 gene, glucose starvation induces a series of promoter-associated lncRNAs, referred to as metabolic-stress-induced lncRNAs (mlonRNAs), which contribute to chromatin remodeling and fbp1 activation. Translocation of the cis-element required for mlonRNA into a well-characterized meiotic recombination hotspot, ade6-M26, further stimulates transcription and meiotic recombination via local chromatin remodeling. The consensus sequence of this cis-element (mlon-box) overlaps with meiotic recombination sites in the fission yeast genome. At one such site, the SPBC24C6.09c upstream region, meiotic double-strand break (DSB) formation is induced in an mlon-box-dependent manner. Therefore, mlonRNA transcription plays a universal role in chromatin remodeling and the regulation of transcription and recombination.
