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

The differential production of transcript isoforms from gene loci is a key cellular mechanism. Yet, its impact in protein production remains an open question. Here, we describe ORQAS (ORF quantification pipeline for alternative splicing), a pipeline for the translation quantification of individual transcript isoforms using ribosome-protected mRNA fragments (ribosome profiling). We find evidence of translation for 40-50% of the expressed isoforms in human and mouse, with 53% of the expressed genes having more than one translated isoform in human, and 33% in mouse. Differential splicing analysis revealed that about 40% of the splicing changes at RNA level are concordant with changes in translation. Furthermore, orthologous cassette exons between human and mouse preserve the directionality of the change, and are enriched in microexons in a comparison between glia and glioma. ORQAS leverages ribosome profiling to uncover a widespread and evolutionarily conserved impact of differential splicing on translation, particularly of microexon-containing isoforms.
