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 mechanisms responsible for translational silencing of certain mRNAs in growing oocytes, and for their awakening during meiotic maturation, are not completely elucidated. We show that binding of a approximately 80-kD protein to a UA-rich element in the 3' UTR of tissue-type plasminogen activator mRNA, a mouse oocyte mRNA that is translated during meiotic maturation, silences the mRNA in primary oocytes. Translation can be triggered by injecting a competitor transcript that displaces this silencing factor, without elongation of a pre-existing short poly(A) tail, the presence of which is mandatory. During meiotic maturation, cytoplasmic polyadenylation is necessary to maintain a poly(A) tail, but the determining event for translational activation appears to be the modification or displacement of the silencing factor.
