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

The integrated stress response (ISR) is critical for resilience to stress and is implicated in numerous diseases. During the ISR, translation is repressed, stress-induced genes are expressed, and mRNAs condense into stress granules. The relationship between stress granules and stress-induced gene expression is unclear. We measured endogenous stress-induced gene mRNA localization at the single-molecule level in the presence or absence of small molecule translation inhibitors. Reducing ribosome association increases the localization of stress-induced gene mRNAs to stress granules, whereas increasing ribosome association inhibits their localization to stress granules. The presence of upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in mRNA reporters reduces their localization to stress granules in a ribosome-dependent manner. Furthermore, a single initiating ribosome blocks stress granule formation and inhibits mRNA association with preformed stress granules. Thus, uORF-mediated ribosome association inhibits stress-induced gene mRNA localization to stress granules, suggesting a new role for uORFs in limiting RNA condensation.
