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

Most of our transcribed RNAs are represented by non-coding sequences. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts with no or very limited protein coding ability and a length >200nt. They can be epigenetically modified. N6-methyladenosine (m6A), N1-methyladenosine (m1A), 5-methylcytosine (m5C), 7-methylguanosine (m7G) and 2'-O-methylation (Nm) are some of the lncRNAs epigenetic modifications. The epigenetic modifications of RNA are controlled by three classes of enzymes, each playing a role in a specific phase of the modification. These enzymes are defined as "writers", "readers" and "erasers". m6A and m5C are the most studied epigenetic modifications in RNA. These modifications alter the structure and properties, thus modulating the functions and interactions of lncRNAs. The aberrant expression of several lncRNAs is linked to the development of a variety of cancers and the epigenetic signatures of m6A- or m5C-related lncRNAs are increasingly recognized as potential biomarkers of prognosis, predictors of disease stage and overall survival. In the present manuscript, the most up to date literature is reviewed with the focus on m6A and m5C modifications of lncRNAs and their significance in cancer.
