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

RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are essential regulators of RNA fate and function. A long-standing challenge in studying RBP regulation has been mapping RNA interactomes within the dynamic transcriptomic landscape, especially in single-cell contexts and primary tissues. Here we introduce MAPIT-seq (modification added to RBP interacting transcript-sequencing), which uses an antibody-directed editing strategy to map genome-wide in situ RBP-RNA interactions and gene expression concurrently. We demonstrate MAPIT-seq's robustness across multiple RBPs and systematically analyze RNA substrates associated with core polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) components. MAPIT-seq is also applicable to frozen tissue sections, enabling the mapping of RBP roles during brain development. Importantly, we develop high-throughput single-cell MAPIT-seq (scMAPIT-seq) to reveal cell stage-specific RBP regulation. In summary, MAPIT-seq expands multi-omics profiling, providing an effective framework to study post-transcriptional regulation in dynamic biological processes and clinically relevant scenarios.
