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

Protein citrullination involves the deimination of arginine or methylarginine residues in peptide chains to form citrulline by peptidyl arginine deiminases. This process is an important protein post-translational modification that affects molecular structure and function of various proteins, including histones. In recent years, protein citrullination has attracted widespread attention for its influence on gene transcription. Studies on the impact of protein citrullination modification on chromatin structure remodeling and the establishment of gene regulatory networks have made rapid progress. In this review, we briefly summarize the physiological functions of protein citrullination modification. Specifically, we comprehensively outline the latest progress in the study of the role of protein citrullination modification in gene transcription regulation, focusing on the interaction of protein citrullination with other post-translational modifications.
