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

Cryptic transcription initiation has been previously linked to activation of oncogenic transcripts. However, the prevalence and impact of cryptic antisense transcription from the opposite strand of protein-coding genes were mostly unknown in cancer. Applying a robust computational pipeline to publicly available transcriptome and epigenome datasets, we identified hundreds of previously unannotated cryptic antisense polyadenylated transcripts (CAPTs) that were enriched in tumor samples. We showed that the activation of cryptic antisense transcription was associated with increased chromatin accessibility and active histone marks. Accordingly, we found that many of the antisense transcripts were inducible by treatment of epigenetic drugs. Moreover, CRISPR-mediated epigenetic editing assays revealed that transcription of a noncoding RNA
