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 tau gene encodes a microtubule-associated protein that is critical for neuronal survival and function. Splicing defects in the human tau gene lead to frontotemporal dementia with Parkinsonism linked to chromosome 17 (FTDP-17), an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder. Genetic mutations associated with FTDP-17 often affect tau exon 10 alternative splicing. To investigate mechanisms regulating tau exon 10 alternative splicing, we have developed a green fluorescent protein reporter for tau exon 10 skipping and an expression cloning strategy to identify splicing regulators. A role for SRp54 (also named SFRS11) as a tau exon 10 splicing repressor has been uncovered using this strategy. The overexpression of SRp54 suppresses tau exon 10 inclusion. RNA interference-mediated knock-down of SRp54 increases exon 10 inclusion. SRp54 interacts with a purine-rich element in exon 10 and antagonizes Tra2beta, an SR-domain-containing protein that enhances exon 10 inclusion. Deletion of this exonic element eliminates the activity of SRp54 in suppressing exon 10 inclusion. Our data support a role of SRp54 in regulating tau exon 10 splicing. These experiments also establish a generally useful approach for identifying trans-acting regulators of alternative splicing by expression cloning.
