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 rice myb7 mRNA contains in its long leader an upstream open reading frame (uORF) putatively coding for a 40 amino acid peptide. uORFs have been found in the leader of mRNAs encoding transcriptional factors or other proteins involved in cellular growth and development. They are thought to translationally regulate the expression of downstream ORFs. Here, we showed the ability of the myb7 uORF to inhibit the expression of downstream reporter genes both in homologous (rice) and heterologous (tobacco) systems. This effect seems partially related to its translation, as indicated by the comparison with the mutagenized uORF. In both systems most of the inhibitory effect was due to the presence of the intercistronic region, in disagreement with the Kozak model. Moreover, replacing the uORF or the intercistronic region with a different one, we demonstrated that the inhibitory effect strictly depends on their co-presence. Finally, in vitro assays showed that the myb7 uORF is translated and inhibits the downstream ORF translation.
