Characterization of the long noncoding RNA transcriptome in human preimplantation embryo development.
Article in Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
purposeInfertility remains a human health burden globally. Only a fraction of embryos produced via assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) develop to the blastocyst stage in vitro. lncRNA abundance changes significantly during human early embryonic development, indicating vital regulatory roles of lncRNAs in this process. The aim of this study is to obtain insights into the transcriptional basis of developmental events.
methodsscRNA-seq data and SUPeR-seq data were used to investigate the lncRNA profiles of human preimplantation embryos. The top 50 highly expressed unique and shared lncRNAs in each stage of preimplantation development were identified. Comparative analysis of the two datasets was used to verify the consistent expression patterns of the lncRNAs. Differentially expressed lncRNAs were identified and subjected to functional enrichment analysis.
resultsThe lncRNA profiles of human preimplantation embryos in the E-MTAB-3929 dataset were similar to those in the GSE71318 dataset. The ratios of overlap among the top 50 highly expressed lncRNAs between two pairs of stages (2-cell stage vs. 4-cell stage and 8-cell stage vs. morula) were aberrantly low compared with those between other stages. Each stage of preimplantation development exhibited unique and shared lncRNAs among the top 50 highly expressed lncRNAs. Among the between-group comparisons, the 2-cell stage vs. 4-cell stage showed the highest number of differentially expressed lncRNAs. Functional enrichment analysis revealed that differentially expressed lncRNAs and their associated super enhancers and RNA binding proteins (RBPs) are closely involved in regulating embryonic development. These lncRNAs could function as important cell markers for distinguishing fetal germ cells.
conclusionsOur study paves the way for understanding the regulation of developmental events, which might be beneficial for improved reproductive outcomes.
