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

RNA editing in kinetoplastid protists is required for the maturation of mitochondrial pre-mRNAs and occurs by protein-catalyzed cycles of uridylate insertion and deletion. During the complex life cycle of Trypanosoma brucei this process is differentially regulated in the mammalian bloodstream and insect procyclic stages. Complementary guide RNAs (gRNAs) direct editing, but the abundance of these transcripts is not developmentally controlled. The establishment of in vitro systems that recreate efficient RNA editing in bloodstream T. brucei would be valuable for mechanistic studies of regulation. Here we describe a robust in vitro system that reconstitutes full cycles of both U insertion and U deletion in bloodstream trypanosomes, and the first direct comparisons of the in vitro systems for strains of mammalian and insect stages.
