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

During Drosophila melanogaster oogenesis, a germline stem cell divides forming a cyst of 16 interconnected cells. One cell enters the oogenic pathway, and the remaining 15 differentiate as nurse cells. Although directed transport and localization of oocyte differentiation factors within the single cell are indispensible for selection, maintenance, and differentiation of the oocyte, the mechanisms regulating these events are poorly understood. Mago Nashi and Tsunagi/Y14, core components of the exon junction complex (a multiprotein complex assembled on spliced RNAs), are essential for restricting oocyte fate to a single cell and for localization of oskar mRNA. Here we provide evidence that Mago Nashi and Tsunagi/Y14 form an oogenic complex with Ranshi, a protein with a zinc finger-associated domain and zinc finger domains. Genetic analyses of ranshi reveal that (1) 16-cell cysts are formed, (2) two cells retain synaptonemal complexes, (3) all cells have endoreplicated DNA (as observed in nurse cells), and (4) oocyte-specific cytoplasmic markers accumulate and persist within a single cell but are not localized within the posterior pole of the presumptive oocyte. Our results indicate that Ranshi interacts with the exon junction complex to localize components essential for oocyte differentiation within the posterior pole of the presumptive oocyte.
