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

backgroundPreimplantation embryo development is a highly ordered sequence of processes and it requires a precise temporal and spatial control of gene expression. Alternative splicing (AS) is a crucial process that changes the genomic instructions into functional proteins, playing a critical role in the regulation of gene expression. Therefore, studies of AS can significantly improve our understanding of transcription and splicing events in preimplantation embryo development.

resultsTo study signatures of AS in embryo development, we firstly identified the critical stage for gene transcription during the preimplantation embryo development. By analyzing single cells RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) data, we found that the two-cell stage is a critical stage for gene transcription in preimplantation embryo development. Further study showed that AS was widespread in preimplantation embryo development, especially at the two-cell stage. In combination with high-throughput chromosome conformation (Hi-C) data, we demonstrated that AS genes were highly enriched in TAD boundaries, while they had no relationship with the A/B compartment and TAD.

conclusionOur results provide new insight into the relationship among AS, gene transcription and chromatin structure in preimplantation embryo development.
