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

The stability of collagen alpha1(I) mRNA is regulated by its 5' stem-loop, which binds a cytoplasmic protein in a cap-dependent manner, and its 3'-untranslated region (UTR), which binds alphaCP. When cultured in a three-dimensional gel composed of type I collagen, mouse fibroblasts had decreased collagen alpha1(I) mRNA steady-state levels, which resulted from a decreased mRNA half-life. In cells cultured in gel, hybrid mouse-human collagen alpha1(I) mRNA with a wild-type 5' stem-loop decayed faster than the same mRNA with a mutated stem-loop. When the 5' stem-loop was placed in a heterologous mRNA, the mRNA accumulated to a lower level in cells grown in gel than in cells grown on plastic. This suggests that the 5' stem-loop down-regulates collagen alpha1(I) mRNA. Protein binding to the 5' stem-loop was reduced in cells grown in gel, which was associated with destabilization of the collagen alpha1(I) mRNA. In addition to the binding of a cytoplasmic protein, there was also a nuclear binding activity directed to the collagen alpha1(I) 5' stem-loop. The nuclear binding was increased in cells grown in gel, suggesting that it may negatively regulate expression of collagen alpha1(I) mRNA. Binding of alphaCP, a protein involved in stabilization of collagen alpha1(I) mRNA, was unchanged by the culture conditions.
