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

As the molecular adapters between codons and amino acids, transfer-RNAs are pivotal molecules of the genetic code. The coding properties of a tRNA molecule do not reside only in its primary sequence. Posttranscriptional nucleoside modifications, particularly in the anticodon loop, can modify cognate codon recognition, affect aminoacylation properties, or stabilize the codon-anticodon wobble base pairing to prevent ribosomal frameshifting. Despite a wealth of biophysical and structural knowledge of the tRNA modifications themselves, their pathways of biosynthesis had been until recently only partially characterized. This discrepancy was mainly due to the lack of obvious phenotypes for tRNA modification-deficient strains and to the difficulty of the biochemical assays used to detect tRNA modifications. However, the availability of hundreds of whole-genome sequences has allowed the identification of many of these missing tRNA-modification genes. This chapter reviews the methods that were used to identify these genes with a special emphasis on the comparative genomic approaches. Methods that link gene and function but do not rely on sequence homology will be detailed, with examples taken from the tRNA modification field.
