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

Here we show that the serine/arginine rich splicing factor 2 (SRSF2) promotes cryptic 3' splice-site (3'AG') usage during cassette exon exclusion in survival of motor neuron (SMN2) minigenes. Deletion of the 3'AG' (3'AG'1), its associated branch point (BP') and polypyrimidine tract (PPT') sequences directs SRSF2 to promote a second 3'AG' (3'AG'2) with less conserved associated region for intron splicing. Furthermore, deletion of both 3'AG'1 and 3'AG'2 and their associated sequences triggered usage of a third 3'AG'3 that has very weak associated sequences. Interestingly, when intron splicing was directed to the 3'AG' cryptic splice-sites, intron splicing from the canonical 3'AG splice-site was reduced along with a decrease in cassette exon inclusion. Moreover, multiple SRSF2 binding sites within the intron are responsible for 3'AG' activation. We conclude that SRSF2 facilitates exon exclusion by activating a cryptic 3'AG' and inhibiting downstream intron splicing.
