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

Ustilago maydis is the model for investigating basidiomycete biotrophic plant pathogens. To further the annotation of its genome, 12,943 full-length cDNA sequences were used to construct databases for the promoter and untranslated regions of U. maydis genes. A subset of clones was sequenced to determine full cDNA sequences. These and the original ESTs were assembled into contigs representing 3,058, or 45%, of the predicted U. maydis genes. The new sequencing allowed the confirmation of 2,842 gene models, 690 of which contain an intron. The use of full-length cDNA clone sequences ensured that untranslated regions were physically linked to the open reading frames (ORFs), not merely aligned upstream of the start of transcription. Identified sequence features include: (1) over 500 potential short upstream ORFs, (2) 95 gene models that require further annotation, (3) one new potential ORF, (4) varying GC content in different gene regions, (5) a WebLogo motif for the start of translation, (6) the correlation of UTR length with transcript representation in cDNA libraries and with gene function categories, (7) a relationship between natural antisense transcripts and UTR length that differs from that of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, (8) a potential relationship between DNA replication and the control of transcription, and (9) new insights regarding mechanisms for the control of transcription and mRNA maturation in U. maydis.
