Refolding of rRNA exons enhances dissociation of the Tetrahymena intron.

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.
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
Self-splicing of the Tetrahymena pre-rRNA is inhibited by a conserved rRNA hairpin P(-1) upstream of the 5' splice site. P(-1) inhibits self-splicing by competing with formation of the P1 splice site helix. Here we show that the P(-1) hairpin also enhances dissociation of the spliced products, which was monitored by native gel electrophoresis. Mutations that stabilize the rRNA hairpin increase the rate of dissociation approximately 10-fold, from 0.5 min(-1) for the wild-type RNA to approximately 4 min(-1) at 30 degrees C. Conversely, mutations or oligonucleotides that inhibit refolding of the exons and that stabilize the P1 helix decrease the rate of product release. The results suggest that refolding of products can be used to stimulate the turnover of ribozyme-catalyzed reactions. In the pre-rRNA, this conformational change helps shift the equilibrium of self-splicing toward the mature rRNA.
