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 KDR gene, which participates in angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, produces two functionally distinct protein products, membrane-bound KDR (mbKDR) and its isoform, soluble KDR (sKDR). Since sKDR does not have a tyrosine kinase domain and does not dimerize, it is principally an antagonist of lymphangiogenesis by sequestering VEGF-C. Alternative polyadenylation of exon 30 or intron 13 leads to the production of mbKDR or sKDR, respectively, yet the regulatory mechanisms are unknown. Here we show that an antisense morpholino oligomer directed against the exon 13-intron 13 junction increases sKDR (suppressing lymphangiogenesis) and decreases mbKDR (inhibiting hemangiogenesis). The latent polyadenylation site in intron 13 of KDR is activated by blocking the upstream 5' splicing site with an antisense morpholino oligomer. Intravitreal morpholino injection suppressed laser choroidal neovascularization while increasing sKDR. In the mouse cornea, subconjunctival injection of the morpholino-inhibited corneal angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis, and suppressed graft rejection after transplantation. Thus, this morpholino can be used for concurrent suppression of hemangiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. This study offers new insight into the mechanisms and potential therapeutic modulation of alternative polyadenylation.
