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

In this protocol, I describe a method for measuring the frequency of adenosine-to-inosine RNA editing of primary, precursor and mature forms of specific microRNAs (miRNAs) derived from the same source. The procedure involves reverse transcription (RT)-PCR amplification of regions containing the editing sites followed by subcloning of the PCR products and sequencing. In contrast to deep sequencing, this method does not require any specialized equipment. Pri-miRNAs, which are relatively long primary transcripts, are amplified using a conventional RT-PCR method. Therefore, this method can be adapted for any known RNA-editing sites. In contrast, 3' polyadenylation followed by 5' adaptor ligation is indispensable for amplification of pre-miRNAs and mature miRNAs. The complete protocol takes ∼1 week. I also include details of direct sequence analysis of the PCR products derived from pri-miRNAs as an alternative method. Although it is not as precise as the subcloning method, this procedure enables us to study RNA-editing events of many samples.
