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

The 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) of positive-strand RNA viruses often form complex structures that facilitate various viral processes. We have examined the RNA conformation of the 352 nucleotide (nt) long 3' UTR of the Tomato bushy stunt virus (TBSV) genome with the goal of defining both local and global structures that are important for virus viability. Gel mobility analyses of a 3'-terminal 81 nt segment of the 3' UTR revealed that it is able to form a compact RNA domain (or closed conformation) that is stabilized by a previously proposed tertiary interaction. RNA-RNA gel shift assays were used to provide the first physical evidence for the formation of this tertiary interaction and revealed that it represents the dominant or "default" structure in the TBSV genome. Further analysis showed that the tertiary interaction involves five base pairs, each of which contributes differently to overall complex stability. Just upstream from the 3'-terminal domain, a long-distance RNA-RNA interaction involving 3' UTR sequences was found to be required for efficient viral RNA accumulation in vivo and to also contribute to the formation of the 3'-terminal domain in vitro. Collectively, these results provide a comprehensive overview of the conformational and functional organization of the 3' UTR of the TBSV genome.
