Nuclear RNA Regulation by XRN2 and XTBD Family Proteins.
Review in Cell structure and function, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
XRN2 is a 5'-to-3' exoribonuclease that is predominantly localized in the nucleus. By degrading or trimming various classes of RNA, XRN2 contributes to essential processes in gene expression such as transcription termination and ribosome biogenesis. Despite limited substrate specificity in vitro, XRN2 targets a specific subset of RNA by interacting with other proteins in cells. Here we review the functions of proteins that have an evolutionarily conserved XRN2-binding domain, XTBD. These proteins modulate activity of XRN2 by stabilizing it, controlling its subcellular localization or recruiting it to specific RNA targets, and thereby impact on various cellular processes.Key words: RNA regulation, XRN2, XTBD, ribosome biogenesis, subcellular localization.
