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

Y RNAs are a class of highly conserved small non-coding RNAs. Emerging evidences reported that Y RNAs and their Y RNA-derived small RNAs (YsRNAs) represent bioactive molecules and not simply structural RNAs involved in scaffolding and assembling. They can interact and regulate both localization and functions of several RNA-binding proteins implicated in a wide range of cellular processes such as DNA replication, RNA quality control and cellular stress responses. More evidences suggest functional involvement of Y RNAs in several type of disease such as cancer, immune related pathologies, neurological disorders and cardiovascular diseases. Nevertheless, there are many questions that still need to be answered for their functional and mechanistic understanding in a physiological and in a pathological context. In this review we will describe the current state of knowledge about YRNAs, their structure, biogenesis, functions and interaction with known proteins, as well their role in disease. The picture arising indicates their potential function as biomarkers for disease diagnosis, as well as therapeutical targets for building up tailored approaches in personalized medicine.
