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 pim-1 proto-oncogene encodes a serine/threonine protein kinase and is expressed in cells of hematolymphoid origin and in the germ cell lineages. In somatic cells, the pim-1 gene is expressed as a 2.8 kb transcript while a shorter sized transcript (2.3 kb) is expressed in rat testes. We have determined that the shorter testes-specific pim-1 transcript arises through the use of an alternate polyadenylation signal present in the 3' untranslated region of the gene. This alternate polyadenylation event results in the removal of an A/U-rich regulatory element located in the 3' untranslated region of the pim-1 gene. This A/U-rich motif has been shown by a number of laboratories to destabilize the transcripts of genes that contain this sequence. Consistent with these findings, we have demonstrated that the shortened testes-specific pim-1 transcript is more stable than the longer A/U-rich containing somatic transcript. We suggest that the functional significance of different sized pim-1 transcripts may be directly related to their different stabilities and that the greater stability of the testes-specific transcript may be essential for the translational delay observed in post-meiotic male germ cells.
