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 PPAR-gamma gene encodes for at least 7 unique transcripts due to alternative splicing of five exons in the 5'-untranslated region (UTR). The translated region is encoded by exons 1-6, which are identical in all isoforms. This study investigated the role of the 5'-UTR in regulating the efficiency with which the message is translated to protein. A coupled in vitro transcription-translation assay demonstrated that PPAR-gamma1, -gamma2, and -gamma5 are efficiently translated, whereas PPAR-gamma4 and -gamma7 are poorly translated. An in vivo reporter gene assay using each 5'-UTR upstream of the firefly luciferase gene showed that the 5'-UTRs for PPAR-gamma1, -gamma2, and -gamma4 enhanced translation, whereas the 5'-UTRs for PPAR-gamma5 and -gamma7 inhibited translation. Models of RNA secondary structure, obtained by the mfold software, were used to explain the mechanism of regulation by each 5'-UTR. In general, it was found that the translational efficiency was inversely correlated with the stability of the mRNA secondary structure, the presence of base-pairing in the consensus Kozak sequence, the number of start codons in the 5'-UTR, and the length of the 5'-UTR. A better understanding of posttranscriptional regulation of translation will allow modulation of protein levels without altering transcription.
