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

Telomerase is the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) reverse transcriptase responsible for synthesizing the 3' ends of linear chromosomes. It plays critical roles in tumorigenesis, cellular aging, and stem cell renewal. The past two years have seen exciting progress in determining telomerase holoenzyme architecture and the structural basis of telomerase activity. Notably, the first electron microscopy structures of telomerase were reported, of the Tetrahymena thermophila telomerase holoenzyme and a human telomerase dimer. In addition to new structures of TERT and TER domains, the first structures of telomerase protein domains beyond TERT, and their complexes with TER or telomeric single-stranded DNA, were reported. Together these studies provide the first glimpse into the organization of the proteins and RNA in the telomerase RNP.
