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 fibronectin EIIIB exon is alternatively spliced in a cell-type-specific manner, and TGCATG repeats in the intron downstream of EIIIB have been implicated in this regulation. Analysis of the intron sequence from several vertebrates shows that the pattern of repeats in the 3' half of the intron is evolutionarily conserved. Point mutations in certain highly conserved repeats greatly reduce EIIIB inclusion, suggesting that a multicomponent complex may recognize the repeats. Expression of the SR protein SRp40, SRp20, or ASF/SF2 stimulates EIIIB inclusion. Studies of the interplay between mutations in the repeats and SRp40-stimulated inclusion suggest that the repeats are recognized in many, if not all, cell types, and that EIIIB inclusion may be regulated by quantitative changes in multiple factors.
