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

Understanding the exquisitely complex nature of the three-dimensional organization of the genome and how it affects gene regulation remains a central question in biology. Recent advances in sequencing- and imaging-based approaches in decoding the three-dimensional chromatin landscape have enabled a systematic characterization of gene regulatory architecture. In this review, we outline how chromatin architecture provides a reference atlas to predict the functional consequences of non-coding variants associated with human traits and disease. High-throughput perturbation assays such as massively parallel reporter assays (MPRA) and CRISPR-based genome engineering in combination with a reference atlas opened an avenue for going beyond observational studies to experimentally validating the regulatory principles of the genome. We conclude by providing a suggested path forward by calling attention to barriers that can be addressed for a more complete understanding of the regulatory landscape of the human brain.
