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

Neurons deviate from a canonical heat shock response (HSR). Here, we revealed that neuronal adaptation to heat shock accompanies a brake on mRNA translation, slowed elongating ribosomes, phosphorylation of eukaryotic elongation factor-2 (p-eEF2), and suppressed the integrated stress response (ISR). Returning neurons to control temperature within 1 h of starting heat shock was necessary for survival and allowed for restored translation following dephosphorylation of eEF2. Subsequent to recovery, neurons briefly activated the ISR and were sensitive to the ISR inhibitor ISRIB, which enhanced protein synthesis and survival. Ribosome profiling and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) identified newly synthesized and existing transcripts associated with ribosomes during heat shock. Preservation of these transcripts for translation during recovery was in part mediated by p-eEF2 and slowed ribosomes. Our work supports a neuronal heat shock model of a partially suspended state of translation poised for rapid reversal if recovery becomes an option and provides insight into regulation between the HSR and the ISR.
