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

RNA binding protein (RBP) expression is finite. For RBPs that are vastly outnumbered by their potential target sites, a simple competition for binding can set the magnitude of post-transcriptional control. Here, we show that LIN28, best known for its direct regulation of let-7 miRNA biogenesis, is also indirectly regulated by its widespread binding of non-miRNA transcripts. Approximately 99% of LIN28 binding sites are found on non-miRNA transcripts, like protein coding and ribosomal RNAs. These sites are bound specifically and strongly, but they do not appear to mediate direct post-transcriptional regulation. Instead, non-miRNA sites act to sequester LIN28 protein and effectively change its functional availability, thus impeding the regulation of let-7 in cells. Together, these data show that the binding properties of the transcriptome broadly influence the ability of an RBP to mediate changes in RNA metabolism and gene expression.
