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

A ribosomal DNA (rDNA) binding activity was previously characterized in fission yeast that recognized the upstream ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene promoter in a sequence specific manner and which stimulated rRNA synthesis. It was found to share characteristics with Saccharomyces cerevisiae's Upstream Activating Factor (UAF), an RNA polymerase I (pol I) specific transcription stimulatory factor. Putative fission yeast homologs of the S.cerevisiae UAF subunits, Rrn5p and Rrn10p, were identified. The Schizosaccharomyces pombe rDNA binding activity/transcriptional stimulatory activity was found to co-fractionate with both SpRrn5h and SpRrn10h. Analysis of polypeptides interacting with SpRrn10h uncovered a 27 kDa polypeptide (Spp27) homologous to a SWI/SNF component (now known to be homologous to Uaf30p). The contributions of the S.pombe and S.cerevisiae upstream rDNA promoter domains were assessed in cross-species transcriptional assays. Furthermore, comparative genomic analysis revealed putative Rrn5p, Rrn10p, Rrn9p and p27 homologs in multiple non-vertebrates. The S.pombe rDNA binding activity is proposed to be an RNA pol I specific SWI/SNF type factor.
