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

Upregulation of utrophin, the autosomal homologue of dystrophin, can compensate dystrophin deficiency in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) although the therapeutic success is yet to be achieved. The present study has identified Poly (C) binding protein 2 (PCBP2) as a post-transcriptional suppresser for the expression of utrophin-A, the muscle-specific utrophin isoform. This study confirms nuclear retention of utrophin-A mRNA in C2C12 cells, which is mediated by PCBP2. Further investigation demonstrates PCBP2-dependent nuclear retention of follistatin mRNA as well. Its involvement in nuclear retention of mRNA sheds light on a novel function of PCBP2 that makes utrophin-A mRNA less available in cytosol. PCBP2, therefore, may be a target to de-repress utrophin-A expression in DMD.
