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 novel ribozyme that accelerates the ligation of beta-nicotinamide mononucleotide (beta-NMN)-activated RNA fragments was isolated and characterized. This artificial ligase ribozyme (YFL ribozyme) was isolated by a "design and selection" strategy, in which a modular catalytic unit was generated on a rationally designed modular scaffold RNA. Biochemical analyses of the YFL ribozyme revealed that it catalyzes RNA ligation in a template-dependent manner, and its activity is highly dependent on its architecture, which consists of a modular scaffold and a catalytic unit. As the design and selection strategy was used for generation of DSL ribozyme, isolation of the YFL ribozyme indicated the versatility of this strategy for generation of functional RNAs with modular architectures. The catalytic unit of the YFL ribozyme accepts not only beta-NMN but also inorganic pyrophosphate and adenosine monophosphate as leaving groups for RNA ligation. This versatility of the YFL ribozyme provides novel insight into the possible roles of beta-NMN (or NADH) in the RNA world.
