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

Human-mouse comparative genomics is an informative tool to assess sequence functionality as inferred from its conservation level. We used this approach to examine dependency among different positions of the 5' splice site. We compiled a data set of 50,493 homologous human-mouse internal exons and analyzed the frequency of changes among different positions of homologous human-mouse 5' splice-site pairs. We found mutual relationships between positions +4 and +5, +5 and +6, -2 and +5, and -1 and +5. We also demonstrated the association between the exonic and the intronic positions of the 5' splice site, in which a stronger interaction of U1 snRNA and the intronic portion of the 5' splice site compensates for weak interaction of U1 snRNA and the exonic portion of the 5' splice site, and vice versa. By using an ex vivo system that mimics the effect of mutation in the 5' splice site leading to familial dysautonomia, we demonstrated that U1 snRNA base-pairing with positions +6 and -1 is the only functional requirement for mRNA splicing of this 5' splice site. Our findings indicate the importance of U1 snRNA base-pairing to the exonic portion of the 5' splice site.
