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 mRNA of the intronless, single-copy CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein-beta (C/EBPbeta) gene encodes several isoforms that have truncated transcription activation domains. This occurs by the alternative translational initiation (ATI) at multiple AUG start sites. The C/EBPbeta mRNA has four in-frame AUGs and an internal out-of-frame AUG associated with a small open reading frame (sORF). Initiation of translation at the in-frame AUGs forms 40-kDa (AUG-1), 35-kDa (AUG-2), 20-kDa (AUG-3) and 8.5-kDa (AUG-4) isoforms. We show that in COS-1 cells the 20-kDa isoform is not a product of proteolysis of the higher molecular weight isoforms. The sORF contains an AUG and termination signal that may produce the oligopeptide MPPAAARRL. Our studies suggest that ATI involves three mRNA structural features: (i) the cap structure, (ii) the context of the Kozak sequences that flank the AUG and (iii) the integrity of the sORF. We propose that formation of C/EBPbeta isoforms is accomplished by a leaky ribosomal scanning mechanism that facilitates ATI of multiple internal AUGs.
