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

We report a new mechanism of aberrant pre-mRNA splicing resulting in constitutive activation of a mis-spliced oncoprotein (KIT) leading to malignancy (gastrointestinal stromal tumor) in contrast to loss of function of mis-spliced proteins resulting in diverse human diseases in the literature. The mechanisms of three consecutive molecular events, deletion of noncoding and coding regions encompassing the 3' authentic splice site, creation of a novel intra-exonic pre-mRNA 3' splice acceptor site leading to in-frame loss of 27 nucleotides (nine amino acids; Lys550-Lys558), and the mechanism of constitutive activation of the mis-spliced KIT are elucidated. Loss of a peptide in a critical location unleashed the protein from autoinhibition (as evidenced by three-dimensional structural analysis), causing KIT to become constitutively activated and resulting in the GIST phenotype. We also demonstrated that only one of the following two exonic splicing enhancers is sufficient for inclusion of the KIT exon 11 in vivo: AACCCATGT (nucleotides 2-10 from the 5' end, which are recognized by SC35, SRp55, and SF2/ASF) or GGTTGTTGAGG (nucleotides 27-37 from the 5' end, which are recognized by SC35 and SRp55), suggestive of exonic enhancer redundancy.
