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

Pre-mRNA splicing is now widely recognized as a cotranscriptional and post-transcriptional mechanism essential for regulating gene expression and modifying gene product function. Mutations in genes encoding core spliceosomal proteins and accessory regulatory splicing factors are now considered among the most recurrent genetic abnormalities in patients with cancer, particularly hematologic malignancies. These include mutations in the major (U2-type) and minor (U12-type) spliceosomes, which remove >99% and ~0.35% of introns, respectively. Growing evidence indicates that aberrant splicing of evolutionarily conserved U12-type minor introns plays a crucial role in cancer as the minor spliceosome component, ZRSR2, is subject to recurrent, leukemia-associated mutations, and intronic mutations have been shown to disrupt the splicing of minor introns. Here, we review the importance of minor intron regulation, the molecular effects of the minor (U12-type) spliceosomal mutations and cis-regulatory regions, and the development of minor intron studies for better understanding of cancer biology.
