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

RNA processing and transport are mediated by cotranscriptionally assembled ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes. RNPs have been postulated to help specify coordinated gene expression, but the requirements for specific RNP complexes in mammalian development and tissue homeostasis have not been extensively evaluated. THO is an evolutionarily conserved RNP complex that links transcription with nuclear export. THO is not essential for Saccharomyces cerevisiae viability, but it is essential for early mouse embryonic development. Embryonic lethality has limited the characterization of THO requirements in adult tissues. To overcome this limitation, a mouse model has been generated that allows widespread inducible deletion of Thoc1, which encodes an essential protein subunit of THO. Widespread Thoc1 deletion disrupts homeostasis within the small intestine but does not have detectable effects in other epithelial tissues such as the related mucosa of the large intestine. Thoc1 loss compromises the proliferation and lineage-generating capacity of small intestinal stem cells, disrupting the supply of differentiated cells in this rapidly renewing tissue. These findings demonstrate that the effects of THO deficiency in the adult mouse are tissue and cell type dependent.
