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

Hairpin-containing pre-miRNAs, produced from pri-miRNAs, are precursors of miRNAs (microRNAs) that play essential roles in gene expression and various human diseases. Current qPCR-based methods used to quantify pre-miRNAs are not effective to discriminate between pre-miRNAs and their parental pri-miRNAs. Here, we developed the intramolecular ligation method (iLIME) to quantify and sequence pre-miRNAs specifically. This method utilizes T4 RNA ligase 1 to convert pre-miRNAs into circularized RNAs, allowing us to design PCR primers to quantify pre-miRNAs, but not their parental pri-miRNAs. In addition, the iLIME also enables us to sequence the ends of pre-miRNAs using next-generation sequencing. Therefore, this method offers a simple and effective way to quantify and sequence pre-miRNAs, so it will be highly beneficial for investigating pre-miRNAs when addressing research questions and medical applications.
