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

Defects in the regulation of alternative splicing have strong relevance in the onset and progression of several types of human cancer. Modulation of alternative splicing allows cancer cells to adapt to hostile environments through production of specific mRNA variants. In particular, genotoxic stress exerted by chemotherapeutic drugs or irradiation strongly affects splicing of many genes. A key role in this aberrant regulation is played by the unbalanced expression of several splicing factors in cancer cells. Among them, the RNA-binding protein Sam68, which is overexpressed in various tumors, was shown to accumulate in nuclear foci of active transcription, together with other splicing regulators, and to affect splicing of target mRNAs in response to genotoxic stress. We suggest that subcellular redistribution of splicing factors is guided by changes in chromatin conformation elicited by DNA-damaging drugs. This event might represent an escape mechanism used by cancer cells to survive to genotoxic insults through expression of pro-survival, cancer-specific gene products.
