Proposing candidate genes under telomeric control based on cross-species position data.
Article in NAR genomics and bioinformatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
In this paper, we present a comprehensive computational framework aimed at suggesting genes whose transcriptional regulation is likely to be influenced by their chromosomal position. This framework provides a user-friendly web interface, enabling researchers to explore the positional properties of all human genes and their orthologs across species, with a focus on their relation to the telomeres. Our approach involves multiple scoring methods, each adjustable by users, representing different features of the genes' positional variation across species. The resulting rankings can be combined to identify candidate genes that may be subject to position effects. Furthermore, the ranking can be tailored to a specific set of reference genes. We evaluate the method within the context of TPE-OLD, a mechanism where telomeres can exert a direct influence on gene expression across considerable genomic distances, and empower researchers to delve deeper into genes of interest, analyzing their position across species and estimating their susceptibility to position effects like TPE-OLD. We also provide simple enrichment analyses of user-provided gene lists in relation to top-ranking candidate genes.
