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

We have investigated relation between interaction of the trans-acting factors with Fmr-1 promoter and expression of FMRP isoforms in intact mouse brain as a function of age and sex. Our EMSA data reveal that among the three complexes formed with 136 bp Fmr-1 promoter fragment, the level of complex C1 significantly increases in adult brain but decreases in old brain in comparison to that in young. The level of total FMRP significantly decreases from young to old in the brain of both the sexes, however, among the three isoforms, expression of the 80-kDa isoform significantly decreases in the brain of both the sexes where as the level of 70 kDa isoform decreases in females during aging. The present finding on relation between age- and sex-dependent interaction of trans-acting factors and expression of FMRP isoforms is novel and may be relevant for regulation of Fmr-1 gene in brain function during aging.
