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

Alternative splicing coupled to nonsense-mediated decay (AS-NMD) is a mechanism for post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. We analyzed the global effects of mutations in seven genes of the C. elegans NMD pathway on AS isoform ratios. We find that mutations in two NMD factors, smg-6 and smg-7, have weaker global effects relative to mutations in other smg genes. We did an in-depth analysis of 12 pre-mRNA splicing factor genes that are subject to AS-NMD. For four of these, changes in the ratio of alternatively spliced isoforms during development are caused by developmentally regulated inhibition of NMD, and not by changes in alternative splicing. Using sucrose gradient analysis of mRNAs undergoing translation, we find several examples of NMD-dependent enrichment of premature termination codon (PTC) isoforms in the monosome fraction. In contrast, we present evidence of two genes for which the PTC-containing isoforms are found in polysomes and have a translational profile similar to non-PTC-containing transcripts from the same gene. We propose that NMD of certain alternatively spliced isoforms is regulated, and that some stabilized NMD targets may be translated.
