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

With the increasing importance of posttranscriptional regulation, in particular translational regulation in development and disease, researchers are developing a methodology to dissect the interactions between RNA binding proteins and their RNA targets. One key aspect of this investigation is identifying RNA targets of those RNA-binding proteins using the UV-cross-linking immunoprecipitation approach. Such a crosslinking immunoprecipitation (CLIP) methodology is potent in identifying targets of RNA-binding proteins in many cell lines. An extension of such a technology is to apply the CLIP approach to tissue and organs to reveal RNA targets of physiological relevance. Here, we summarize our methods in identifying RNA targets from mouse testes and fly testes by enhanced CLIP (eCLIP) method and propose this eCLIP method could be applied to testes of most animal species if an effective antibody is available to an RNA binding protein of interest.
