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

A new method for the characterization of pre-mRNA splicing products is presented. In this method RNA molecules are hybridized to an oligodeoxynucleotide complementary to exon sequences upstream of a given 5' splice site, and the RNA strands of the resulting RNA:DNA hybrids are cleaved by RNase H. The cleaved RNAs are then subjected to primer extension using a 32P-labelled primer complementary to exon sequences downstream of an appropriate 3' splice site. Since the primer extension products all terminate at the site of RNase H cleavage, their lengths are indicative of the splice sites utilized. The method simplifies the study of the processing of complex pre-mRNAs by allowing the splicing events between any two exons to be analyzed. We have used this approach to characterize the RNAs generated by expression of the rat tropomyosin 1 (Tm 1) gene in various rat tissues and in cultured cells after transient transfection. The results demonstrate that this method is suitable for the analysis of alternative RNA processing in vivo.
