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

Isolation of ribonucleoprotein particles from living cells and cell lysates has allowed the identification of both simple bimolecular interactions and the members of large, extended complexes. A number of different strategies have been devised to isolate these complexes by using affinity purification methods that are specific for the RNA rather than the protein components of these complexes. We describe the use of two such RNA affinity tags: small RNAs that bind with high affinity and specificity to either Sephadex beads or streptavidin affinity resins and can be eluted under mild, native conditions that retain intact complexes. The tags can be inserted into appropriate locations in genes encoding the RNA components, and ribonucleoproteins can be assembled either in vivo or in vitro before affinity isolation. Strategies toward the design and production of these tagged RNA sequences are discussed, and the purification procedure is outlined.
