Timing RNA polymerase pausing with TV-PRO-seq.
Article in Cell reports methods, 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
Transcription of many genes in metazoans is subject to polymerase pausing, which is the transient stop of transcriptionally engaged polymerases. This is known to mainly occur in promoter-proximal regions but it is not well understood. In particular, a genome-wide measurement of pausing times at high resolution has been lacking. We present here the time-variant precision nuclear run-on and sequencing (TV-PRO-seq) assay, an extension of the standard PRO-seq that allows us to estimate genome-wide pausing times at single-base resolution. Its application to human cells demonstrates that, proximal to promoters, polymerases pause more frequently but for shorter times than in other genomic regions. Comparison with single-cell gene expression data reveals that the polymerase pausing times are longer in highly expressed genes, while transcriptionally noisier genes have higher pausing frequencies and slightly longer pausing times. Analyses of histone modifications suggest that the marker H3K36me3 is related to the polymerase pausing.
