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 present study characterized an embryonic lethal mutation induced by insertion of the U3Neo gene trap retrovirus into an intron of the gene encoding heterogeneous ribonuclear protein U (Hnrnpu), which maps to the distal arm of mouse chromosome 1. Murine hnRNP U was found to be identical to the human protein at all but one of 341 amino acid residues. Embryos homozygous for the provirus showed obvious abnormalities after 6.5 days of development (E6.5) and were resorbed by E10.5. Expression of the inserted neomycin-resistance gene involved alternative splicing to a cryptic 3' splice site located in the neomycin resistance gene resulting in a hypomorphic mutation. Homozygous mutant cell lines isolated from preimplantation blastocysts expressed hnRNP U transcripts at levels 2 to 5 times lower than wild-type cells, suggesting that nearly wild-type levels of hnRNP U are required for embryonic development.
