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

Cellular levels of RNAs containing transposable elements increase in response to various stresses. Polymerase III (Pol III)-dependent transcripts of transposons are different from transposon-containing RNAs generated by read-through Pol II-dependent transcription. Until now, Pol III transcripts were detected by primer extension followed by time-consuming gel electrophoresis. In this paper, we describe a more sensitive PCR-based method for the selective detection of Pol III-transcribed RNAs. The method is based on the difference in sequences at the 5' ends of the Pol II- and Pol III-dependent transcripts. We employed this method to quantify Pol III transcripts of transposon B1 in rodent cells and revealed that their levels are affected by UV irradiation. We therefore conclude that the abundance of the Pol III-transcribed fraction of cellular RNA may serve as marker of stress response and can be conveniently quantified by the method described.
