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 Escherichia coli RNA degradosome is a multienzyme assembly that functions in transcript turnover and maturation of structured RNA precursors. We have developed a procedure to reconstitute the RNA degradosome from recombinant components using modular coexpression vectors. The reconstituted assembly can be purified on a scale that has enabled biochemical and biophysical analyses, and we compare the properties of recombinant and cell-extracted RNA degradosomes. We present evidence that auxiliary protein components can be recruited to the 'superprotomer' core of the assembly through a dynamic equilibrium involving RNA intermediaries. We discuss the implications for the regulation of RNA degradosome function in vivo.
