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

Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) cover a large class of transcribed RNA molecules that are more than 200 nucleotides in length. An increasing number of studies have shown that lncRNAs control gene expression through different mechanisms and play important roles in a range of biological processes including growth, cell differentiation, proliferation, apoptosis, and invasion. TUG1 was originally discovered in a genomic screen of taurine-treated mouse retinal cells. Previous evidences pointed out that lncRNA TUG1 could inhibit apoptosis and the release of inflammatory factors, improve mitochondrial function, thereby protecting cells from damage, and showing a protective role of TUG1 in diseases. Given that TUG1 has multiple targets and can interfere with multiple steps in the oncogenic process, it has been proposed as a therapeutic target. In this review, we summarize the research progress of lncRNA TUG1 in kidney diseases in the past 8 years, and discuss its related molecular mechanisms.
