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

Microexons are short exons that are highly conserved in vertebrates and are essential for neurodevelopment. Their small size poses a challenge for regulatory protein binding and exon-definition splice site recognition, which typically relies on standard length exons. Here, we determine the sequence and RNA structural features of neural microexons in humans and in the chick developmental model organism. We demonstrate that a subset of neural microexons undergoes dynamic, stage-specific regulation during chick embryonic brain development that correlates with expression of known microexon regulators,
