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

Splicing is one key mechanism determining the state of any eukaryotic cell. Apart from linear splice variants, circular splice variants (circRNAs) can arise via non-canonical splicing involving a back-splice junction (BSJ). Most existing methods only identify circRNAs via the corresponding BSJ, but do not aim to estimate their full sequence identity or to identify different, alternatively spliced circular isoforms arising from the same BSJ. We here present CYCLeR, the first computational method for identifying the full sequence identity of new and alternatively spliced circRNAs and their abundances while simultaneously co-estimating the abundances of known linear splicing isoforms. We show that CYCLeR significantly outperforms existing methods in terms of F score and quantification of transcripts in simulated data. In a in a comparative study with long-read data, we also show the advantages of CYCLeR compared to existing methods. When analysing Drosophila melanogaster data, CYCLeR uncovers biological patterns of circRNA expression that other methods fail to observe.
