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 microtubule-associated protein tau is important to normal neuronal function in the mammalian nervous system. Aggregated tau is the major component of neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs), present in several neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's and frontotemporal dementia with Parkinsonism (FTDP). Splicing misregulation of adult-specific exon 10 results in expression of abnormal ratios of tau isoforms, leading to FTDP. Positions +3 to +16 of the intron downstream of exon 10 define a clustering region for point mutations that are found in FTDP. The serine/arginine-rich (SR) factor 9G8 strongly inhibits inclusion of tau exon 10. In this study, we established that 9G8 binds directly to this clustering region, requires a wild-type residue at position +14 to inhibit exon inclusion, and RNAi constructs against 9G8 increase exon 10 inclusion. These results indicate that 9G8 plays a key role in regulation of exon 10 splicing and imply a pathogenic role in neurodegenerative diseases.
