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 mechanisms that mediate the establishment of totipotency during the egg-to-embryo transition in mammals remain poorly understood. However, it is clear that unique factors stored in the oocyte cytoplasm are crucial for orchestrating this complex cellular transition. The oocyte cytoplasmic lattices (CPLs) have long been predicted to function as a storage form for the maternal contribution of ribosomes to the early embryo. We recently demonstrated that the CPLs cannot be visualized in Padi6-/- oocytes and that Padi6-/- embryos arrest at the two-cell stage. Here, we present evidence further supporting the association of ribosomes with the CPLs by demonstrating that the sedimentation properties of the small ribosomal subunit protein, S6, are dramatically altered in Padi6-/- oocytes. We also show that the abundance and localization of ribosomal components is dramatically affected in Padi6-/- two-cell embryos and that de novo protein synthesis is also dysregulated in these embryos. Finally, we demonstrate that embryonic genome activation (EGA) is defective in Padi6-/- two-cell embryos. These results suggest that, in mammals, ribosomal components are stored in the oocyte CPLs and are required for protein translation during early development.
