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

Translational control is vital during the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), yet the landscape of embryonic transfer RNA (tRNA) pools has been difficult to explore. Here, we develop Optimized Reaction for Accurate Capture of Low-input Entities tRNA Sequencing (ORACLE-tRNAseq), enabling robust tRNA profiling from as few as five mouse oocytes. We map tRNA landscapes from oocyte to blastocyst, identifying a distinct transition to embryonic tRNA repertoires and upregulation of tRNA pseudogenes at the 4-cell stage. Integrated multi-omics analyses reveal that zygotic tRNA gene activation coincides with zygotic genome activation (ZGA) and correlates with H3K4me3 establishment and chromatin remodeling. By coupling ORACLE-tRNAseq with Ribo-seq, we demonstrate that embryonic tRNA anticodon pools coordinate with high translation-efficiency gene pools to preferentially establish the zygotic translation machinery, particularly from major ZGA onwards. Collectively, these findings provide a resource for understanding translational regulatory networks during early embryogenesis.
