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

Genome-wide sequencing has led to the discovery of thousands of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) loci in the human genome, but evidence of functional significance has remained controversial for many lncRNAs. Genetically engineered model organisms are considered the gold standard for linking genotype to phenotype. Recent advances in CRISPR-Cas genome editing have led to a rapid increase in the use of mouse models to more readily survey lncRNAs for functional significance. Here, we review strategies to investigate the physiological relevance of lncRNA loci by highlighting studies that have used genetic mouse models to reveal key in vivo roles for lncRNAs, from fertility to brain development. We illustrate how an investigative approach, starting with whole-gene deletion followed by transcription termination and/or transgene rescue strategies, can provide definitive evidence for the in vivo function of mammalian lncRNAs.
