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

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are key co- and post-transcriptional regulators of gene expression, playing a crucial role in many biological processes. Experimental methods like CLIP-seq have enabled the identification of transcriptome-wide RNA-protein interactions for select proteins; however, the time- and resource-intensive nature of these technologies call for the development of computational methods to complement their predictions. Here, we leverage recent, large-scale CLIP-seq experiments to construct a de novo predictor of RNA-protein interactions based on graph neural networks (GNN). We show that the GNN method allows us not only to predict missing links in an RNA-protein network, but to predict the entire complement of targets of previously unassayed proteins, and even to reconstruct the entire network of RNA-protein interactions in different conditions based on minimal information. Our results demonstrate the potential of modern machine learning methods to extract useful information on post-transcriptional regulation from large data sets.
