epidecodeR: a functional exploration tool for epigenetic and epitranscriptomic regulation.
Article in Briefings in bioinformatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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 technological advances in sequencing DNA and RNA modifications using high-throughput platforms have generated vast epigenomic and epitranscriptomic datasets whose power in transforming life science is yet fully unleashed. Currently available in silico methods have facilitated the identification, positioning and quantitative comparisons of individual modification sites. However, the essential challenge to link specific 'epi-marks' to gene expression in the particular context of cellular and biological processes is unmet. To fast-track exploration, we generated epidecodeR implemented in R, which allows biologists to quickly survey whether an epigenomic or epitranscriptomic status of their interest potentially influences gene expression responses. The evaluation is based on the cumulative distribution function and the statistical significance in differential expression of genes grouped by the number of 'epi-marks'. This tool proves useful in predicting the role of H3K9ac and H3K27ac in associated gene expression after knocking down deacetylases FAM60A and SDS3 and N6-methyl-adenosine-associated gene expression after knocking out the reader proteins. We further used epidecodeR to explore the effectiveness of demethylase FTO inhibitors and histone-associated modifications in drug abuse in animals. epidecodeR is available for downloading as an R package at https://bioconductor.riken.jp/packages/3.13/bioc/html/epidecodeR.html.
