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

Scanning arrays of antisense DNA oligonucleotides provide a novel and systematic means to study structural features within an RNA molecule. We used this approach to probe the structure of the untranslated leader of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) RNA genome. This 335 nt RNA encodes multiple important replication signals and adopts two mutually exclusive conformations. The poly(A) and the dimer initiation signal (DIS) sequences of the leader RNA are base-paired in the long-distance interaction (LDI) conformation, but both domains form distinct hairpins in the branched multiple hairpins (BMH) conformation. An RNA switch mechanism has been proposed to regulate the activity of the DIS dimerization signal that is masked in one, yet exposed in the other conformation. The two RNA conformations demonstrate discrete differences in the array-based hybridization patterns. LDI shows increased hybridization in the poly(A) region and decreased hybridization in the DIS region when compared with BMH. These results provide additional evidence for the structure models of the two alternative leader RNA conformations. We also found a correlation between the efficiency of oligonucleotide hybridization and the accessibility of the RNA structure as determined by chemical and enzymatic probing in previous studies. The array approach therefore provides a very sensitive method to detect structural differences in related transcripts.
