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

Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is a eukaryotic cellular RNA surveillance and quality-control mechanism that degrades mRNA containing premature stop codons (nonsense mutations) that otherwise may exert a deleterious effect by the production of dysfunctional truncated proteins. Collagen X (COL10A1) nonsense mutations in Schmid-type metaphyseal chondrodysplasia are localized in a region toward the 3' end of the last exon (exon 3) and result in mRNA decay, in contrast to most other genes in which terminal-exon nonsense mutations are resistant to NMD. We introduce nonsense mutations into the mouse Col10a1 gene and express these in a hypertrophic-chondrocyte cell line to explore the mechanism of last-exon mRNA decay of Col10a1 and demonstrate that mRNA decay is spatially restricted to mutations occurring in a 3' region of the exon 3 coding sequence; this region corresponds to where human mutations have been described. This localization of mRNA-decay competency suggested that a downstream region, such as the 3' UTR, may play a role in specifying decay of mutant Col10a1 mRNA containing nonsense mutations. We found that deleting any of the three conserved sequence regions within the 3' UTR (region I, 23 bp; region II, 170 bp; and region III, 76 bp) prevented mutant mRNA decay, but a smaller 13 bp deletion within region III was permissive for decay. These data suggest that the 3' UTR participates in collagen X last-exon mRNA decay and that overall 3' UTR configuration, rather than specific linear-sequence motifs, may be important in specifying decay of Col10a1 mRNA containing nonsense mutations.
