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

Prediction of the effects of splice-site variations by sequence analysis is difficult. In this study we provide the means for a rapid evaluation of the potential for splice-site mutations to interfere with RNA processing. The system may be useful in reverse genetics or mapping studies when isolation and characterization of mRNA is arduous or not possible. In the assay we cloned wild-type and mutant sequences of murine splice-site mutations into an exon-trapping vector and characterized splicing of both recombinant transcripts in a transient cell culture system. Results from this artificial assay were compared with in vivo data from the respective mouse models. We found that the exon-trapping system allows one to confidently predict whether a splice-site variation is going to have a splicing effect in vivo, but the system does not always reflect in vivo splicing in detail. In summary, the exon-trapping system is a reliable and easy-to-use tool for a first evaluation of splice effects.
