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

Tissue-specific alternative splicing (AS) is emerging as one of the most exciting types of mechanisms associated with organ development and disease. In the auditory system, many hearing-related genes undergo AS, and errors in this process result in syndromic or non-syndromic hearing loss. However, little is known about the factors and mechanisms directing AS in the inner ear. In the present study, we identified a novel RNA-binding protein, Rbm24, which was critically involved in regulating inner-ear-specific AS. Rbm24 deletion resulted in hearing loss and defects in motor coordination. Global splicing analysis showed Rbm24 was required for correct splicing of a subset of pre-mRNA transcripts with essential roles in stereocilia integrity and survival of hair cells. Furthermore, we identified that Rbm24 directly regulated the splicing of Cdh23, a known disease gene responsible for human Usher syndrome 1D and non-syndromic autosomal recessive deafness DFNB12. In conclusion, our findings demonstrated that Rbm24 was a critical factor in regulating inner-ear-specific splicing and maintaining the hearing and motor coordination function of the inner ear. Our data not only offer mechanistic insights but also provide functional annotation of Rbm24 splicing targets that contribute to hearing loss.
