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

Recent reports show that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have inefficient splicing and fewer alternative splice variants than mRNAs. Here, we have explored the efficiency of lncRNAs and mRNAs in producing various splice variants, given the number of exons in humans and mice. Intriguingly, lncRNAs produce more splice variants per exon, referred to as Transcript Complexity, than mRNAs. Most lncRNA splice variants are the product of the alternative last exon and exon skipping. LncRNAs and mRNAs with higher transcript complexity have shorter intron lengths. Longer exon length and GC/AG at 5'/3' splice sites are associated with higher transcript complexity in lncRNAs. Lastly, our results indicate that inefficient splicing of lncRNAs may facilitate multiple introns splicing and, thus, more spliced products per exon.
