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

We previously identified an RNA transport element (RTE), present in a subclass of rodent intracisternal A particle retroelements (F. Nappi, R. Schneider, A. Zolotukhin, S. Smulevitch, D. Michalowski, J. Bear, B. Felber, and G. Pavlakis, J. Virol. 75:4558-4569, 2001), that is able to replace Rev-responsive element regulation in human immunodeficiency virus type 1. RTE-directed mRNA export is mediated by a still-unknown cellular factor(s), is independent of the CRM1 nuclear export receptor, and is conserved among vertebrates. Here we show that this RTE folds into an extended RNA secondary structure and thus does not resemble any known RTEs. Computer searches revealed the presence of 105 identical elements and more than 3,000 related elements which share at least 70% sequence identity with the RTE and which are found on all mouse chromosomes. These related elements are predicted to fold into RTE-like structures. Comparison of the sequences and structures revealed that the RTE and related elements can be divided into four groups. Mutagenesis of the RTE revealed that the minimal element contains four internal stem-loops, which are indispensable for function in mammalian cells. In contrast, only part of the element is essential to mediate RNA transport in microinjected Xenopus laevis oocyte nuclei. Importantly, the minimal RTE able to promote RNA transport has key structural features which are preserved in all the RTE-related elements, further supporting their functional importance. Therefore, RTE function depends on a complex secondary structure that is important for the interaction with the cellular export factor(s).
