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

U8 snoRNA plays a unique role in ribosome biogenesis: it is the only snoRNA essential for maturation of the large ribosomal subunit RNAs, 5.8S and 28S. To learn the mechanisms behind the in vivo role of U8 snoRNA, we have purified to near homogeneity and characterized a set of proteins responsible for the formation of a specific U8 RNA-binding complex. This 75-kDa complex is stable in the absence of added RNA and binds U8 with high specificity, requiring the conserved octamer sequence present in all U8 homologues. At least two proteins in this complex can be cross-linked directly to U8 RNA. We have identified the proteins as Xenopus homologues of the LSm (like Sm) proteins, which were previously reported to be involved in cytoplasmic degradation of mRNA and nuclear stabilization of U6 snRNA. We have identified LSm2, -3, -4, -6, -7, and -8 in our purified complex and found that this complex associates with U8 RNA in vivo. This purified complex can bind U6 snRNA in vitro but does not bind U3 or U14 snoRNA in vitro, demonstrating that the LSm complex specifically recognizes U8 RNA.
