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 ubiquitous, co-transcriptional, and post-transcriptional regulation mechanism during certain developmental processes, such as germ cell differentiation. A thorough understanding of germ cell differentiation will help us to open new avenues for avian reproduction, stem cell biology, and advances in medicines for human consumption. Here, based on single-cell RNA-seq, we characterized genome-wide AS events in manifold chicken male germ cells: embryonic stem cells (ESCs), gonad primordial germ cells (gPGCs), and spermatogonia stem cells (SSCs). A total of 38,494 AS events from 15,338 genes were detected in ESCs, with a total of 48,955 events from 14,783 genes and 49,900 events from 15,089 genes observed in gPGCs and SSCs, respectively. Moreover, this distribution of AS events suggests the diverse splicing feature of ESCs, gPGCs, and SSCs. Finally, several crucial stage-specific genes, such as NANOG, POU5F3, LIN28B, BMP4, STRA8, and LHX9, were identified in AS events that were transmitted in ESCs, gPGCs, and SSCs. The gene expression results of the RNA-seq data were validated by qRT-PCR. In summary, we provided a comprehensive atlas of the genome-wide scale of the AS event landscape in male chicken germ-line cells and presented its distribution for the first time. This research may someday improve treatment options for men suffering from male infertility.
