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

In this paper, we describe a new method for selecting RNA aptamers that cooperatively bind to two specific sites within a target RNA. We designed a selection system in which two RNAs, a target RNA and a RNA pool, were assembled by employing a pre-organized GAAA tetraloop-11-nt receptor interaction. This allows us to select the binding sequence against a targeted internal loop as well as a linker region optimized for binding of the two binding sites. After the selection, the aptamers bound with dissociation constants in the nanomolar range, thereby forming a stable complex with the target RNA. Thus this method enables identification of aptamers for a specific binding site together with a linker for cooperative binding of the two RNAs. It appears that our new method can be applied generally to select RNAs that adhere tightly to a target RNA via two specific sites. The method can also be applicable for further engineering of both natural and artificial RNAs.
