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

A previous NMR structure of the duplex 5'GGU GGA GGCU/PCCG AAG CCG5' revealed an unusually stable RNA internal loop with three consecutive sheared GA pairs. Here, we report NMR studies of two duplexes, 5'GGU GGA GGCU/PCCA AAG CCG5' (replacing the UG pair with a UA closing pair) and 5'GGU GAA GGCU/PCCG AAG CCG5' (replacing the middle GA pair with an AA pair). An unusually stable loop with three consecutive sheared GA pairs forms in the duplex 5'GGU GGA GGCU/PCCA AAG CCG5'. The structure contrasts with that reported for this loop in the crystal structure of the large ribosomal subunit of Deinococcus radiodurans [Harms, J., Schluenzen, F., Zarivach, R., Bashan, A., Gat, S., Agmon, I., Bartels, H., Franceschi, F., and Yonath, A. (2001) Cell 107, 679-688]. The middle AA pair in the duplex 5'GGU GAA GGCU/PCCG AAG CCG5' rapidly exchanges orientations, resulting in alternative base stacking and pseudosymmetry with exclusively sheared pairs. The U GAA G/G AAG C internal loop is 2.1 kcal/mol less stable than the U GGA G/G AAG C internal loop at 37 degrees C. Structural, energetic, and dynamic consequences upon functional group substitutions within related 3 x 3 and 3 x 6 internal loops are also reported.
