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

Posttranscriptional silencing of basic beta-1,3-glucanase genes in the tobacco line T17 is manifested by reduced transcript levels of the gn1 transgene and homologous, endogenous basic beta-1,3-glucanase genes. An RNA ligation-mediated rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RLM-RACE) technique was used to compare the 3' termini of gn1 RNAs present in expressing (hemizygous and young homozygous) and silenced (mature homozygous) T17 plants. Full-length, polyadenylated gn1 transcripts primarily accumulated in expressing plants, whereas in silenced T17 plants, mainly 3'-truncated, nonpolyadenylated gn1 RNAs were detected. The relative abundance of these 3'-truncated gn1 RNA species gradually increased during the establishment of silencing in homozygous T17 plants. Similar 3'-truncated, nonpolyadenylated gn1 RNA products were observed in an independent case of beta-1,3-glucanase posttranscriptional gene silencing. This suggests that these 3'-truncated gn1 RNAs are a general feature of tobacco plants showing posttranscriptional silencing of the gn1 transgene.
