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

Two genetically distinct retroviral RNAs can be co-packaged if the RNAs are co-expressed in virion producing cells. For Moloney murine leukemia virus (MLV), co-packaged RNAs are not randomly selected from among all packaging-competent RNAs, but instead primarily associate as homodimers. Here, we tested the hypothesis that the distance between proviral templates might hinder RNA heterodimerization, thus generating the observed preferential homodimerization of co-expressed MLV RNAs. To do this, two genetically distinct RNAs were co-expressed from a single locus and the proportions of hetero- and homodimeric virion RNAs were determined. Unlike RNAs transcribed from two different templates, RNAs transcribed from a single locus dimerized at random. Additionally, in vitro transcription experiments suggested that MLV RNA dimerization can occur more efficiently for longer RNAs during transcription than post-synthesis. Together, these findings show that MLV RNA dimer-partner selection likely occurs either co-transcriptionally or within a pool of transcripts near the proviral template.
