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

An Aspergillus nidulans mutation, designated nmdA1, has been selected as a partial suppressor of a frameshift mutation and shown to truncate the homologue of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) surveillance component Nmd2p/Upf2p. nmdA1 elevates steady-state levels of premature termination codon-containing transcripts, as demonstrated using mutations in genes encoding xanthine dehydrogenase (hxA), urate oxidase (uaZ), the transcription factor mediating regulation of gene expression by ambient pH (pacC), and a protease involved in pH signal transduction (palB). nmdA1 can also stabilize pre-mRNA (unspliced) and wild-type transcripts of certain genes. Certain premature termination codon-containing transcripts which escape NMD are relatively stable, a feature more in common with certain nonsense codon-containing mammalian transcripts than with those in S. cerevisiae. As in S. cerevisiae, 5' nonsense codons are more effective at triggering NMD than 3' nonsense codons. Unlike the mammalian situation but in common with S. cerevisiae and other lower eukaryotes, A. nidulans is apparently impervious to the position of premature termination codons with respect to the 3' exon-exon junction.
