sRNA Profiler: A User-Focused Interface for Small RNA Mapping and Profiling.
Article in Cells, 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
Viroids are circular, highly structured, single-stranded, non-coding RNA pathogens known to infect and cause disease in several plant species. They are known to trigger the host plant's RNA silencing machinery. The detection of viroid-derived small RNAs (vd-sRNA) in viroid-infected host plants opened a new avenue of study in host-viroid pathogenicity. Since then, several viroid research groups have studied the vd-sRNA retrieved from different host-viroid combinations. Such studies require the segregation of 21- to 24-nucleotide long small RNAs (sRNA) from a deep-sequencing databank, followed by separating the vd-sRNA from any sRNA within this group that showed sequence similarity with either the genomic or the antigenomic strands of the viroid. Such mapped vd-sRNAs are then profiled on both the viroid's genomic and antigenomic strands for visualization. Although several commercial interfaces are currently available for this purpose, they are all programmed for linear RNA molecules. Hence, viroid researchers must develop a computer program that accommodates the sRNAs derived from the circular viroid genome. This is a laborious process, and consequently, it often creates a bottleneck for biologists. In order to overcome this constraint, and to help the research community in general, in this study, a python-based pattern matching interface was developed so as to be able to both profile and map sRNAs on a circular genome. A "matching tolerance" feature has been included in the program, thus permitting the mapping of the sRNAs derived from the quasi-species. Additionally, the "topology" feature allows the researcher to profile sRNA derived from both linear and circular RNA molecules. The efficiency of the program was tested using previously reported deep-sequencing data obtained from two independent studies. Clearly, this novel software should be a key tool with which to both evaluate the production of sRNA and to profile them on their target RNA species, irrespective of the topology of the target RNA molecule.
