Pseudogenes: A Novel Source of Trans-Acting Antisense RNAs.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Several recent studies support a functional role for pseudogenes, a copy of a parent gene that has lost protein-coding potential, which was for a long time thought to represent only "junk" DNA. Several hundreds of pseudogenes have now been reported as transcribed RNAs in a large variety of tissues and tumor types. Most studies have focused on pseudogenes expressed in sense direction, relative to their protein-coding gene counterpart, but some reports suggest that pseudogenes can be also transcribed as antisense RNAs (asRNAs). Key regulatory genes, such as PTEN and OCT4, have in fact been reported to be under the regulation of pseudogene-expressed asRNAs. Here, we review what is known about pseudogene-expressed asRNAs, we discuss the functional role that these transcripts may have in gene regulation and we summarize the techniques that are available to study them.
