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

Members of the Trypanosomatidae, which include the African trypanosomes, the American trypanosomes and the leishmanias, cause disease in vast proportions in man and his livestock and are a major detrimental factor to the social and economic well-being of the third world. Current research using the techniques of molecular biology has revealed two unusual types of mRNA processing in these protozoans; these are the addition of a shared leader sequence to the 5' ends of nuclear mRNAs by a mechanism of trans splicing, and the insertion and deletion of specific uridine residues in mitochondrial transcripts by RNA editing. The presence of these two mRNA processing pathways in the Trypanosomatidae has profound consequences for the organization and expression of their genetic information.
