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

backgroundPre-mRNA splicing occurs mainly co-transcriptionally, and both nucleosome density and histone modifications have been proposed to play a role in splice site recognition and regulation. However, the extent and mechanisms behind this interplay remain poorly understood.

resultsWe use transcriptomic and epigenomic data generated by the ENCODE project to investigate the association between chromatin structure and alternative splicing. We find a strong and significant positive association between H3K9ac, H3K27ac, H3K4me3, epigenetic marks characteristic of active promoters, and exon inclusion in a small but well-defined class of exons, representing approximately 4 % of all regulated exons. These exons are systematically maintained at comparatively low levels of inclusion across cell types, but their inclusion is significantly enhanced in particular cell types when in physical proximity to active promoters.

conclusionHistone modifications and other chromatin features that activate transcription can be co-opted to participate in the regulation of the splicing of exons that are in physical proximity to promoter regions.
