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

Pseudotriloop (PTL) structures in RNAs have been recognized as essential elements in RNA folding and recognition of proteins. PTL structures are derived from hexaloops by formation of a cross-loop base pair leaving a triloop and 3' bulged out residue. Despite their common presence and functional importance, insufficient structural and thermodynamic data are available that can be used to predict formation of PTLs from sequence alone. Using NMR spectroscopy and UV-melting data we established factors that contribute to the formation and stability of PTL structures derived from hepatitis B virus and human foamy virus. The NMR data show that, besides the cross-loop base pair, also a 3' pyrimidine bulge and a G-C loop-closing base pair are primary determinants of PTL formation. By changing the G-C closing base pair into C-G, the PTL switches into a hexaloop. Comparison of these rules with regular triloop hairpins and PTLs from other sources is discussed as well as the conservation of a PTL in human foamy virus and other spumaretroviruses.
