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

A large number of natural and artificial ribozymes have been isolated since the demonstration of the catalytic potential of RNA, with the majority of these catalyzing phosphate hydrolysis or transesterification reactions. Here, we describe and characterize an extremely short ribozyme that catalyzes the positionally specific transesterification that produces a 2'-3' phosphodiester bond between itself and a branch substrate provided in trans, cleaving itself internally in the process. Although this ribozyme was originally derived from constructs based on snRNAs, its minimal catalytic motif contains essentially no snRNA sequence and the reaction it catalyzes is not directly related to either step of pre-mRNA splicing. Our data have implications for the intrinsic reactivity of the large amount of RNA sequence space known to be transcribed in nature and for the validity and utility of the use of protein-free systems to study pre-mRNA splicing.
