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

E3 ubiquitin ligases play essential roles in catalyzing the ubiquitination process and are involved in almost all life activities of eukaryotes. RNF20 is a really interesting new gene (RING) finger E3 ubiquitin ligase and is well-known for its role in monoubiquitination of histone H2B. Recent studies have offered new insights into how RNF20 regulates gene expression and developmental programs, and how misregulation of its activities leads to pathologies including developmental disorders and cancers. Here, we provide a current review of the physiological and pathological roles of RNF20 in embryonic development and human diseases, and outline its cellular and molecular modes of action, as well as the upstream control of RNF20 activity, thus providing insights for the molecular basis of RNF20 misregulation associated human diseases.
