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

The conjugative transfer of F-plasmids is repressed by a two-component system, which consists of the antisense RNA FinP and the protein FinO. FinO binds FinP, protecting it from endonucleolytic degradation and facilitating duplex formation between FinP and its complementary RNA. Here we present the results of site-specific protein-RNA cross-linking and gel-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (gelFRET) experiments used to probe the structure of a complex of FinO bound to an RNA target consisting of a duplex with 5' and 3' single-stranded tails. The crosslinking experiments reveal that an extensive, largely positively charged surface on FinO contacts RNA. The gelFRET measurements indicate that the 5' single-stranded tail of the RNA is in closer contact with much of the protein than the distal, blunt end of the RNA duplex. These data suggest that significant conformational adjustments in the protein and/or the RNA accompany complex formation.
