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

As RNAs fold to functional structures, they traverse complex energy landscapes that include many partially folded and misfolded intermediates. For structured RNAs that possess catalytic activity, this activity can provide a powerful means of monitoring folding that is complementary to biophysical approaches. RNA catalysis can be used to track accumulation of the native RNA specifically and quantitatively, readily distinguishing the native structure from intermediates that resemble it and may not be differentiated by other approaches. Here, we outline how to design and interpret experiments using catalytic activity to monitor RNA folding, and we summarize adaptations of the method that have been used to probe aspects of folding well beyond determination of the folding rates.
