IPScan: Detecting novel intronic PolyAdenylation events with RNA-seq data.
Article in PLoS computational biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Intronic PolyAdenylation (IPA) is an important post-transcriptional mechanism that can alter transcript coding potential by truncating translation regions, thereby increasing transcriptome and proteome diversity. This process generates novel protein isoforms with altered peptide sequences, some of which are implicated in disease progression, including cancer. Truncated proteins may lose tumor-suppressive functions, contributing to oncogenesis. Despite advancements in Alternative PolyAdenylation (APA) analysis using RNA-seq, detecting and quantifying novel IPA events remains challenging. To address this, we developed IPScan, a computational pipeline for precise IPA event identification, quantification, and visualization. IPScan has been benchmarked against existing methods using simulated data, different human and mouse cell lines, and TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas) breast cancer datasets. Differential IPA events under different biological conditions were quantified and validated via qPCR.
