Splice site proximity influences alternative exon definition.
Article in RNA biology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers.
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.
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 enables higher eukaryotes to expand mRNA diversity from a finite number of genes through highly combinatorial splice site selection mechanisms that are influenced by the sequence of competing splice sites, cis-regulatory elements binding trans-acting factors, the length of exons and introns harbouring alternative splice sites and RNA secondary structures at putative splice junctions. To test the hypothesis that the intron definition or exon definition modes of splice site recognition direct the selection of alternative splice patterns, we created a database of alternative splice site usage (ALTssDB). When alternative splice sites are embedded within short introns (intron definition), the 5' and 3' splice sites closest to each other across the intron preferentially pair, consistent with previous observations. However, when alternative splice sites are embedded within large flanking introns (exon definition), the 5' and 3' splice sites closest to each other across the exon are preferentially selected. Thus, alternative splicing decisions are influenced by the intron and exon definition modes of splice site recognition. The results demonstrate that the spliceosome pairs splice sites that are closest in proximity within the unit of initial splice site selection.
