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 editing by adenosine deaminases acting on RNA (ADARs) is an essential cellular process performed by three enzymes in mammals: ADAR1-p150, ADAR1-p110, and ADAR2, demonstrating different target specificity and selectivity. Here we describe TSniffer, a novel tool to analyze RNA editing in RNA-sequencing datasets. TSniffer uses a rolling window approach to identify editing sites and operates in two modes allowing identification and quantification in single samples, and quantification in predefined regions across multiple datasets. Using wild type and ADAR-deficient datasets, we provide strategies for identification of ADAR editing sites and verify the accuracy and biological relevance of our findings.
