Noncanonical cytoplasmic poly(A) polymerases regulate RNA levels, alternative RNA processing, and synaptic plasticity but not hippocampal-dependent behaviours.
Article in RNA biology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Noncanonical poly(A) polymerases are frequently tethered to mRNA 3' untranslated regions and regulate poly(A) tail length and resulting translation. In the brain, one such poly(A) polymerase is Gld2, which is anchored to mRNA by the RNA-binding protein CPEB1 to control local translation at postsynaptic regions. Depletion of CPEB1 or Gld2 from the mouse hippocampus results in a deficit in long-term potentiation (LTP), but only depletion of CPEB1 alters animal behaviour. To test whether a related enzyme, Gld4, compensates for the lack of Gld2, we separately or simultaneously depleted both proteins from hippocampal area CA1 and again found little change in animal behaviour, but observed a deficit in LTP as well as an increase in long-term depression (LTD), two forms of protein synthesis-dependent synaptic plasticity. RNA-seq data from Gld2, Gld4, and Gld2/Gld4-depleted hippocampus show widespread changes in steady state RNA levels, alternative splicing, and alternative poly(A) site selection. Many of the RNAs subject to these alterations encode proteins that mediate synaptic function, suggesting a molecular foundation for impaired synaptic plasticity.
