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

Excessive alcohol consumption results in significant changes in gene expression and isoforms due to altered mRNA splicing. As such, an intriguing possibility is that disturbances in alternative splicing are involved in key pathological pathways triggered by alcohol exposure. However, no resources have been available to systematically analyze this possibility at a genome-wide scale. Here, we performed RNA sequencing of human fetal cortical slices that were obtained at the late first trimester and exposed to ethanol or control medium. We report 382 events that were identified as changes affecting the ratio of splicing isoforms in the ethanol-exposed fetal human cortex. Additionally, previously unreported novel isoforms of several genes were also identified. These results provide a broad perspective on the post-transcriptional regulatory network underlying ethanol-induced pathogenesis in the developing human cortex.
