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

MicroRNA (miRNA) plays physiologically and pathologically important roles in post-transcriptional regulation. Although miRNA has been suggested to dynamically interact with cellular organelles, the dynamicity of intracellular miRNA behavior has remained unclear. Here, by introducing fluorescently labeled pre-miRNA into living cells, we improved the miRNA visualization method using exogenous miRNA precursors. Through the combination of our miRNA visualization method and single-molecule sensitive fluorescence microscopy, we quantitatively analyzed the process of miRNA maturation. Furthermore, single-particle tracking of fluorescent miRNA in cells revealed the directed movements of miRNA on cytoskeletal components (i.e., microtubules and actin filaments). Our results also suggest that cytoskeleton-dependent miRNA trafficking is associated with the interaction of miRNAs with the nucleus and the endoplasmic reticulum/Golgi apparatus. Our method should facilitate the elucidation of the mechanism and physiological significance of the subcellular localization and organelle interaction of miRNA.
