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

Translation of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) genomic RNA initiates from an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) in its 5' untranslated region and requires a minimal subset of translation initiation factors to occur, namely eukaryotic initiation factor (eIF) 2 and eIF3. Low-resolution structural information has revealed how the HCV IRES RNA binds human eIF3 and the 40S ribosomal subunit and positions the start codon for initiation. However, the exact nature of the interactions between the HCV IRES RNA and the translational machinery remains unknown. Using limited proteolysis and mass spectrometry, we show that distinct regions of human eIF3 are sufficient for binding to the HCV IRES RNA and the 40S subunit. Notably, the eIF3 subunit eIF3b is protected by HCV IRES RNA binding, yet is exposed in the complex when compared to subunits eIF3e, eIF3f, eIF3h, and eIF3l. Limited proteolysis reveals that eIF3 binding to the 40S ribosomal subunit occurs through many redundant interactions that can compensate for each other. These data suggest how the HCV IRES binds to specific regions of eIF3 to target the translational machinery to the viral genomic RNA and provide a framework for modeling the architecture of intact human eIF3.
