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

Mechanical signaling has been well documented in certain cell types, such as muscle cells, osteoblasts, fibroblasts, and other cells, historically defined as mechanocytes for their ability to receive and respond to mechanical stimuli. However, recent data suggest that mechanical signaling is not restricted to given cell types, but it is rather a universal feature of most eukaryotic cells that, similarly to extracellular chemical signaling, controls basic metabolic and intracellular signaling processes. Several studies published in recent years provided evidence that mRNA maturation is altered in cells exposed to mechanical stress. These data indicate that the process might be closely related to the 3D spatial reorganization of RNA-binding proteins. With mounting evidence for the mechanical control of mRNA splicing, this review aims to provide an overview of the available literature and offer a comprehensive vision of this phenomenon that stands out as a fundamental process in cellular biology.
