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

Using either highly purified RNA polymerase II (pol II) elongation complexes assembled on oligo(dC)-tailed templates or promoter-initiated (extract-generated) pol II elongation complexes, the precise 3" ends of transcripts produced during transcription in vitro at several human c- and N- myc pause, arrest and termination sites were determined. Despite a low overall similarity between the entire c- and N- myc first exon sequences, many positions of pol II pausing, arrest or termination occurred within short regions of related sequence shared between the c- and N- myc templates. The c- and N- myc genes showed three general classes of sequence conservation near intrinsic pause, arrest or termination sites: (i) sites where arrest or termination occurred after the synthesis of runs of uridines (Us) preceding the transcript 3" end, (ii) sites downstream of potential RNA hairpins and (iii) sites after nucleotide addition following either a U or a C or following a combination of several pyrimidines near the transcript 3" end. The finding that regions of similarity occur near the sites of pol II pausing, arrest or termination suggests that the mechanism of c- and N- myc regulation at the level of transcript elongation may be similar and not divergent as previously proposed.
