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

Here we describe the many applications of acid urea polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (acid urea PAGE) followed by Northern blot analysis to studies of tRNAs and aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases. Acid urea PAGE allows the electrophoretic separation of different forms of a tRNA, discriminated by changes in bulk, charge, and/or conformation that are brought about by aminoacylation, formylation, or modification of a tRNA. Among the examples described are (i) analysis of the effect of mutations in the Escherichia coli initiator tRNA on its aminoacylation and formylation; (ii) evidence of orthogonality of suppressor tRNAs in mammalian cells and yeast; (iii) analysis of aminoacylation specificity of an archaeal prolyl-tRNA synthetase that can aminoacylate archaeal tRNA(Pro) with cysteine, but does not aminoacylate archaeal tRNA(Cys) with cysteine; (iv) identification and characterization of the AUA-decoding minor tRNA(Ile) in archaea; and (v) evidence that the archaeal minor tRNA(Ile) contains a modified base in the wobble position different from lysidine found in the corresponding eubacterial tRNA.
