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

Motivation: Cross-linking and immunoprecipitation (CLIP) is a technology to map the binding sites of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs). The region where an RBP binds within RNA is often indicative of its molecular function in RNA processing. As an example, the binding sites of splicing factors are found within or proximal to alternatively spliced exons. To better reveal the function of RBPs, we developed a tool to visualize the distribution of CLIP signals around various transcript features. Results: Here, we present Metadensity (https://github.com/YeoLab/Metadensity), a software that allows users to generate metagene plots. Metadensity allows users to input features such as branchpoints and preserves the near-nucleotide resolution of CLIP technologies by not scaling the features by length. Metadensity normalizes immunoprecipitated libraries with background controls, such as size-matched inputs, then windowing in various user-defined features. Finally, the signals are averaged across a provided set of transcripts. Availability and implementation: Metadensity is available at https://github.com/YeoLab/Metadensity, with example notebooks at https://metadensity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/tutorial.html.
