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

RNA editing in Trypanosoma brucei produces mature mRNAs by posttranscriptional insertion and deletion of uridylates (Us) by a series of catalytic steps, which include endoribonucleolytic cleavage, 3' terminal addition or removal of Us, and RNA ligation. Preedited mRNA (pre-mRNA) and guide RNA (gRNA) that are mutated at or near the editing site (ES) were used to examine the effects on the specificity of in vitro editing. Sequences that are not predicted to form a gRNA/pre-mRNA base pair immediately 5' to the ES still supported accurate editing. Substitution of a non-U nucleotide at various positions within a stretch of Us that are normally removed from the ES resulted in deletion of only the Us that were 3' to the substituted nucleotide. Overall, ES selection by the endoribonuclease, the specificity of the 3' exoribonuclease for Us, and ligation appear to act in concert to ensure the production of accurately edited RNA.
