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

Glucocorticoids are primary stress hormones, and their synthetic derivatives are widely used clinically. The therapeutic efficacy of these steroids is limited by side effects and glucocorticoid resistance. Multiple glucocorticoid receptor (GR) isoforms are produced from a single gene by alternative translation initiation; however, the role individual isoforms play in tissue-specific responses to glucocorticoids is unknown. We have generated knockin mice that exclusively express the most active receptor isoform, GR-C3. GR-C3 knockin mice die at birth due to respiratory distress. Microarray analysis of fibroblasts from wild-type and GR-C3 mice indicated that most genes regulated by GR-C3 were unique to this isoform. Antenatal glucocorticoid administration rescued GR-C3 knockin mice from neonatal death. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry revealed no major alterations in body composition for rescued knockin mice. Rescued female, but not male, GR-C3 mice exhibited increased wheel running activity in the light portion of the day. LPS administration induced premature mortality in rescued GR-C3 knockin mice, and gene expression studies revealed a deficiency in the ability of GR-C3 to repress a large cohort of immune and inflammatory response genes. These findings demonstrate that specific GR translational isoforms can influence development, circadian rhythm, and inflammation through the regulation of distinct gene networks.-Oakley, R.
