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

Natural antisense transcripts are RNA sequences that can be transcribed from both DNA strands at the same locus but in the opposite direction from the gene transcript. Because strand-specific high-throughput sequencing of the antisense transcriptome has only been available for less than a decade, many natural antisense transcripts were first described as long non-coding RNAs. Although the precise biological roles of natural antisense transcripts are not known yet, an increasing number of studies report their implication in gene expression regulation. Their expression levels are altered in many physiological and pathological conditions, including breast cancers. Among the potential clinical utilities of the natural antisense transcripts, the non-coding|coding transcript pairs are of high interest for treatment. Indeed, these pairs can be targeted by antisense oligonucleotides to specifically tune the expression of the coding-gene. Here, we describe the current knowledge about natural antisense transcripts, their varying molecular mechanisms as gene expression regulators, and their potential as prognostic or predictive biomarkers in breast cancers.
