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

Eukaryotic translation termination results from the complex functional interplay between two eukaryotic release factors, eRF1 and eRF3, and the ribosome, in which GTP hydrolysis by eRF3 couples codon recognition with peptidyl-tRNA hydrolysis by eRF1. Here, using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) and flexible fitting, we determined the structure of eRF1-eRF3-guanosine 5'-[β,γ-imido]triphosphate (GMPPNP)-bound ribosomal pretermination complex (pre-TC), which corresponds to the initial, pre-GTP hydrolysis stage of factor attachment. Our results show that eukaryotic translation termination involves a network of interactions between the two release factors and the ribosome. Our structure provides mechanistic insight into the coordination between GTP hydrolysis by eRF3 and subsequent peptide release by eRF1.
