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

The Integrator complex, composed of at least 19 subunits, associates with RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) and exerts critical roles in transcriptional regulation. By interacting with the C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNAPII, it cleaves nascent RNA transcripts, leading to termination of non-productive transcription in protein-coding genes and processing of diverse noncoding RNAs. Beyond RNA cleavage, Integrator regulates transcription initiation, pause-release, and elongation, while also processing enhancer RNAs. It contributes to genome stability by modulating RNAPII activity during DNA damage and replication stress. Dysfunction of Integrator subunits has been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders and cancer, underscoring its broad physiological significance. This review highlights recent advances in structure and function that illuminate Integrator's essential roles in development, neurobiology, and disease.
