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

Because of their compact genomes, retroelements (including retrotransposons and retroviruses) employ a variety of translational recoding mechanisms to express Gag and Pol. To assess the diversity of recoding strategies, we surveyed gag/pol gene organization among retroelements from diverse host species, including elements exhaustively recovered from the genome sequences of Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Candida albicans, and Arabidopsis thaliana. In contrast to the retroviruses, which typically encode pol in the -1 frame relative to gag, nearly half of the retroelements surveyed encode a single gag-pol open reading frame. This was particularly true for the Ty1/copia group retroelements. Most animal Ty3/gypsy retroelements, on the other hand, encode gag and pol in separate reading frames, and likely express Pol through +1 or -1 frameshifting. Conserved sequences conforming to slippery sites that specify viral ribosomal frameshifting were identified among retroelements with pol in the -1 frame. None of the plant retroelements encoded pol in the -1 frame relative to gag; however, two closely related plant Ty3/gypsy elements encode pol in the +1 frame. Interestingly, a group of plant Ty1/copia retroelements encode pol either in a +1 frame relative to gag or in two nonoverlapping reading frames. These retroelements have a conserved stem-loop at the end of gag, and likely express pol either by a novel means of internal ribosomal entry or by a bypass mechanism.
