The RNA-binding protein quaking is upregulated in nitrofen-induced congenital diaphragmatic hernia lungs at the end of gestation.

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
backgroundThe RNA-binding protein Quaking (QKI) increases during epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and its expression is controlled by microRNA-200 family members. Here, we aimed to describe the expression of QKI in the developing lungs of control and nitrofen-induced congenital diaphragmatic hernia lungs (CDH).
methodsTo investigate the expression of QKI, we dissected lungs from control and nitrofen-induced CDH rats on embryonic day 15, 18, 21 (E15, E18, E21). We performed immunofluorescence (IF) and quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) for QKI expression. Additionally, we assessed Interleukin-6 (IL-6) abundance using IF.
resultsOn E21, IF showed that the abundance of all three QKI isoforms and IL-6 protein was higher in CDH lungs compared to control lungs (QKI5: p = 0.023, QKI6: p = 0.006, QKI7: p = 0.014, IL-6: p = 0.045, respectively). Furthermore, RT-qPCR data showed increased expression of QKI5, QKI6, and QKI7 mRNA in E21 nitrofen lungs by 1.63 fold (p = 0.001), 1.63 fold (p = 0.010), and 1.48 fold (p = 0.018), respectively.
conclusionsOur data show an increase in the abundance and expression of QKI at the end of gestation in nitrofen-induced CDH lungs. Therefore, a disruption in the regulation of QKI during the late stage of pregnancy could be associated with the pathogenesis of abnormal lung development in CDH.
