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

Alternative splicing (AS) is a posttranscriptional mechanism regulating gene expression that complex organisms utilize to expand proteome diversity from a comparatively limited set of genes. Recent research has increasingly associated AS with increased functional complexity in the central nervous systems in higher order mammals. This work has heavily implicated aberrant AS in several neurocognitive and neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism. Due to the strong genetic association between germline PTEN mutations and autism spectrum disorder (ASD), we hypothesized that germline PTEN mutations would alter AS patterns, contributing to the pathophysiology of ASD. In a murine model of constitutional mislocalization of Pten, recapitulating an autism-like phenotype, we found significant changes in AS patterns across the neural transcriptome by analyzing RNA-sequencing data with the program rMATS. A few hundred significant alternative splicing events (ASEs) that differentiate each m3m4 genotype were identified. These ASEs occur in genes enriched in PTEN signaling, inositol metabolism, and several other pathways relevant to the pathophysiology of ASD. In addition, we identified expression changes in several splicing factors known to be enriched in the nervous system. For instance, the master regulator of microexons, Srrm4, has decreased expression, and consequently, we found decreased inclusion of microexons in the Pten
