Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q2 i? The review reports the authors' finding that the RNA modification m6A is highly dynamic in the brain and critically involved in the formation of fear memory. → Paul Marshall and Timothy W Bredy 2016

q2 · i? · review · r2

Review citing the authors' own recent work (Widagdo et al., referenced) on experience-dependent m6A accumulation in prefrontal cortex: "the RNA modi fication m6A is highly dynamic in the brain and critically involved in the formation of fear memory". No effect size is printed.

"In recent work, we have discovered that the RNA modi fication m6A is highly dynamic in the brain and critically involved in the formation of fear memory."
