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

Translation initiation driven by internal ribosome entry site (IRES) elements is dependent on the structural organization of the IRES region. Picornavirus IRES are organized in structural domains, in which the terminal stem-loops participate in functional RNA-protein interactions. However, the mechanistic role performed by the central domain during internal initiation has not been elucidated yet. Here we show that the foot-and-mouth-disease virus IRES contains a structural motif that serves in vitro as substrate for the Synechocystis sp. RNase P ribozyme, a structure-dependent endonuclease that participates in tRNA precursor processing. Recognition of the IRES substrate was dose dependent, required high magnesium concentration, and resulted in the formation of cleavage products with 5' phosphate and 3' hydroxyl ends. Mapping of the core recognition motif indicated that it overlapped with the apical region of the central domain. Two IRES constructs containing nucleotide substitutions in the apical region of the central domain that reorganized RNA structure displayed an altered pattern of cleavage by the cyanobacterial ribozyme generating new cleavage events in nearby residues. From these data it is inferred that the central domain of the IRES region has evolved a tRNA structural mimicry that renders it a substrate for RNase P ribozyme reaction. Recognition of this motif was affected in defective IRES mutants with a local RNA structure reorganization, suggesting that its structural preservation is required for IRES activity.
