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

Correct docking of U3 small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA) on pre-ribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA) is essential for rRNA processing to produce 18S rRNA. In this report, we have used Xenopus oocytes to characterize the structural requirements of the U3 snoRNA 3'-hinge interaction with region E1 of the external transcribed spacer (ETS) of pre-rRNA. This interaction is crucial for docking to initiate rRNA processing. 18S rRNA production was inhibited when fewer than 6 of the 8 bp of the U3 3'-hinge complex with the ETS could form; moreover, base pairing involving the right side of the 3'-hinge was more important than the left. Increasing the length of the U3 hinge-ETS interaction by 9 bp impaired rRNA processing. Formation of 18S rRNA was also inhibited by swapping the U3 5'- and 3'-hinge interactions with the ETS or by shifting the base pairing of the U3 3'-hinge to the sequence directly adjacent to ETS region E1. However, 18S rRNA production was partially restored by a compensatory shift that allowed the sequence adjacent to the U3 3'-hinge to pair with the eight bases directly adjacent to ETS region E1. The results suggest that the geometry of the U3 snoRNA interaction with the ETS is critical for rRNA processing.
