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

Next-generation sequencing approaches have fundamentally changed the types of questions that can be asked about gene function and regulation. With the goal of approaching truly genome-wide quantifications of all the interaction partners and downstream effects of particular genes, these quantitative assays have allowed for an unprecedented level of detail in exploring biological interactions. However, many challenges remain in our ability to accurately describe and quantify the interactions that take place in those hard to reach and extremely repetitive regions of our genome comprised mostly of transposable elements (TEs). Tools dedicated to TE-derived sequences have lagged behind, making the inclusion of these sequences in genome-wide analyses difficult. Recent improvements, both computational and experimental, allow for the better inclusion of TE sequences in genomic assays and a renewed appreciation for the importance of TE biology. This review will discuss the recent improvements that have been made in the computational analysis of TE-derived sequences as well as the areas where such analysis still proves difficult. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue 'Crossroads between transposons and gene regulation'.
