Ribosomal RNA Depletion for Poly(A)-Tail-Independent Quantification of Genome Activation.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2025. 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
High-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) is commonly used to quantify gene expression transcriptome-wide. While usually paired with polyadenylate (poly(A)) selection to enrich for messenger RNA (mRNA) to the exclusion of highly abundant ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in the cell, this strategy will under-quantify mRNA with short or absent poly(A) tails and can conflate changes in poly(A) tail length with changes in RNA level. This is notably an issue during early development, when cytoplasmic polyadenylation of maternal mRNA over time can be mistaken for genome activation in poly(A) + RNA-seq time courses. Here, we present a method to perform total RNA-seq using a streamlined rRNA depletion strategy customizable to any taxon. Antisense DNA oligos are designed with the aid of our Oligo-ASST web tool to sparsely tile the length of the rRNA, which are used with thermostable RNaseH to digest rRNA from a total RNA sample. After column cleanup, the mRNA-enriched sample is ready for sequencing library construction.
