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

Current models of mRNA turnover indicate that cytoplasmic degradation is coupled with translation. However, our understanding of the molecular events that coordinate ribosome transit with the mRNA decay machinery is still limited. Here, we show that 4EHP-GIGYF1/2 complexes trigger co-translational mRNA decay. Human cells lacking these proteins accumulate mRNAs with prominent ribosome pausing. They include, among others, transcripts encoding secretory and membrane-bound proteins or tubulin subunits. In addition, 4EHP-GIGYF1/2 complexes fail to reduce mRNA levels in the absence of ribosome stalling or upon disruption of their interaction with the cap structure, DDX6, and ZNF598. We further find that co-translational binding of GIGYF1/2 to the mRNA marks transcripts with perturbed elongation to decay. Our studies reveal how a repressor complex linked to neurological disorders minimizes the protein output of a subset of mRNAs.
