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 members of the serine-arginine (SR) family of proteins play multiple roles in posttranscriptional gene expression. Initially considered as essential splicing factors confined to the nucleus and regulating constitutive and alternative splicing, SR proteins are now known to shuttle between the nucleus and the cytoplasm and to be involved in mRNA biogenesis, transport, and translation. In Chironomus tentans, hrp45 is an SR protein structurally similar to the Drosophila SRp55/B52 SR protein. We have studied how hrp45, hrp36 [a heterogenous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) protein], and small nuclear RNP (snRNP) proteins are distributed in the transcriptionally active loci of polytene chromosomes in C. tentans. Immunofluorescence visualization of the proteins in double-labeling experiments revealed that hrp45 preferentially associates with a small number of puffs. On the other hand, hrp36 and snRNP proteins were found distributed in a large number of loci with little quantitative difference. Remarkably, hrp45-labeled loci coincide with the sites of transcription of premessenger RNPs of secretory protein (sp) genes. Because the labeling was found sensitive to RNase A treatment, we conclude that the SR protein hrp45 preferentially binds to sp gene transcripts in salivary gland cells. The preferential association of a specific SR protein with a particular type of gene transcripts reflects substrate-specific function(s) of an SR protein, in vivo. The possible roles that hrp45 might be playing in speedy and efficient processing of sp gene transcripts are discussed.
