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

Polyadenylation of RNA is a posttranscriptional modification that can play two somewhat opposite roles: stable polyadenylation of RNA encoded in the nuclear genomes of eukaryote cells contributes to nuclear export, translation initiation, and possibly transcript longevity as well. Conversely, transient polyadenylation targets RNA molecules to rapid exonucleolytic degradation. The latter role has been shown to take place in prokaryotes and organelles, as well as the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Here we present evidence of hetero- and homopolymeric adenylation of truncated RNA molecules within the cytoplasm of human cells. RNAi-mediated silencing of the major RNA decay machinery of the cell resulted in the accumulation of these polyadenylated RNA fragments, indicating that they are degradation intermediates. Together, these results suggest that a mechanism of RNA decay, involving transient polyadenylation, is present in the cytoplasm of human cells.
