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

The alteration of gene expression is not restricted to transcriptional regulation but includes a variety of post-transcriptional mechanisms; however, the role of the latter in many diseases remains relatively unknown. By using an RNA-Seq dataset of 1510 brain samples from individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), bipolar disorder (BD), schizophrenia (SCZ), and controls, we assessed the contribution of post-transcriptional dysregulation and identified top perturbators accountable for transcriptomic alterations in neuropsychiatric disorders. Approximately 30% of the expression variability was attributed to post-transcriptional dysregulation. Interestingly, mature mRNA levels tended to be post-transcriptionally downregulated in SCZ and BD, leading to the inhibition of neurogenesis and neural differentiation, while they were upregulated in ASD, resulting in enhanced activity of apoptosis. These findings imply contrasting pathologies involving RNA metabolism across neuropsychiatric disorders. An RNA-binding protein, ELAVL3, was predicted to be significantly involved in the disruption of post-transcriptional regulation in all three disorders. To validate this, we knocked down its expression in cerebral organoids. Not only did the differentially expressed genes in
