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

THO is a multi-protein complex that promotes coupling between transcription and mRNA processing. In contrast to its role in mRNA biogenesis, we show here that the fission yeast THO complex negatively controls the expression of non-coding small nucleolar (sno) RNAs. Accordingly, the deletion of genes encoding subunits of the evolutionarily conserved THO complex results in increased levels of mature snoRNAs. We also show physical and functional connections between THO and components of the TRAMP polyadenylation complex, whose loss of function also results in snoRNA accumulation. Consistent with a role in snoRNA expression, we demonstrate that THO and TRAMP complexes are recruited to snoRNA genes, and that a functional THO complex is required to maintain TRAMP occupancy at sites of snoRNA transcription. Our findings suggest that THO promotes exosome-mediated degradation of snoRNA precursors by ensuring the presence of the TRAMP complex at snoRNA genes. This study unveils an unexpected role for THO in the control of snoRNA expression and provides a new link between transcription and nuclear RNA decay.
