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

Fluorescent RNA is an important analytical tool in medical diagnostics, RNA cytochemistry, and RNA aptamer development. We have synthesized the fluorescent ribonucleotide analogue 1,3-diaza-2-oxophenothiazine-ribose-5'-triphosphate (tCTP) and tested it as substrate for T7 RNA polymerase in transcription reactions, a convenient route for generating RNA in vitro. When transcribing a guanine, T7 RNA polymerase incorporates tCTP with 2-fold higher catalytic efficiency than CTP and efficiently polymerizes additional NTPs onto the tC. Remarkably, T7 RNA polymerase does not incorporate tCTP with the same ambivalence opposite guanine and adenine with which DNA polymerases incorporate the analogous dtCTP. While several DNA polymerases discriminated against a d(tC-A) base pair only by factors <10, T7 RNA polymerase discriminates against tC-A base pair formation by factors of 40 and 300 when operating in the elongation and initiation mode, respectively. These catalytic properties make T7 RNA polymerase an ideal tool for synthesizing large fluorescent RNA, as we demonstrated by generating a approximately 800 nucleotide RNA in which every cytosine was replaced with tC.
