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

ALYREF can recognize 5-methylcytosine (m5C) decoration throughout RNAs to regulate RNA metabolism. However, its implications in cancer and precise regulatory mechanisms remain largely elusive. Here, we demonstrated that ALYREF supported colorectal cancer (CRC) growth and migration. Integrated analysis of ALYREF-RIP-Bis-seq and transcriptome profiles identified ribosomal protein S6 kinase B2 (RPS6KB2) and regulatory-associated protein of mTOR (RPTOR) as ALYREF's possible downstream effectors. Mechanistically, ALYREF formed a complex with ELAV like RNA binding protein 1 (ELAVL1) to cooperatively promote m5C recognition and nuclear export of the two mRNAs. Moreover, ALYREF protein was highly expressed in tumor tissues of CRC patients, which predicted their poor prognosis. E2F transcription factor 6 (E2F6)-mediated transactivation gave a molecular insight into ALYREF overexpression. Collectively, ALYREF recruits ELAVL1 to collaboratively facilitate m5C recognition and nuclear export of RPS6KB2 and RPTOR transcripts for colorectal tumorigenesis, providing RNA m5C methylation as promising therapeutic targets and prognostic biomarkers for CRC.
