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

backgroundIn C. elegans, germline development and early embryogenesis rely on posttranscriptional regulation of maternally transcribed mRNAs. In many cases, the 3' untranslated region (UTR) is sufficient to govern the expression patterns of these transcripts. Several RNA-binding proteins are required to regulate maternal mRNAs through the 3'UTR. Despite intensive efforts to map RNA-binding protein-mRNA interactions in vivo, the biological impact of most binding events remains unknown. Reporter studies using single copy integrated transgenes are essential to evaluate the functional consequences of interactions between RNA-binding proteins and their associated mRNAs.

resultsIn this report, we present an efficient method of generating reporter strains with improved throughput by using a library variant of MosSCI transgenesis. Furthermore, using RNA interference, we identify the suite of RNA-binding proteins that control the expression pattern of five different maternal mRNAs.

conclusionsThe results provide a generalizable and efficient strategy to assess the functional relevance of protein-RNA interactions in vivo, and reveal new regulatory connections between key RNA-binding proteins and their maternal mRNA targets.
