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

Mammalian oocytes are transcriptionally quiescent, and meiosis and early embryonic divisions rely on translation of stored maternal mRNAs. Activation of these mRNAs is mediated by polyadenylation. Cytoplasmic polyadenylation binding element 1 (CPEB1) regulates mRNA polyadenylation. One message is aurora kinase C (Aurkc), encoding a protein that regulates chromosome segregation. We previously demonstrated that AURKC levels are upregulated in oocytes lacking aurora kinase B (AURKB), and this upregulation caused increased aneuploidy rates, a role we investigate here. Using genetic and pharmacologic approaches, we found that AURKB negatively regulates CPEB1-dependent translation of many messages. To determine why translation is increased, we evaluated aurora kinase A (AURKA), a kinase that activates CPEB1 in other organisms. We find that AURKA activity is increased in Aurkb knockout mouse oocytes and demonstrate that this increase drives the excess translation. Importantly, removal of one copy of Aurka from the Aurkb knockout strain background reduces aneuploidy rates. This study demonstrates that AURKA is required for CPEB1-dependent translation, and it describes a new AURKB requirement to maintain translation levels through AURKA, a function crucial to generating euploid eggs.
