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 vitro selection experiments in biochemistry allow for the discovery of novel molecules capable of specific desired biochemical functions. However, this is not the only benefit we can obtain from such selection experiments. Since selection from a random library yields an unprecedented, and sometimes comprehensive, view of how a particular biochemical function is distributed across sequence space, selection experiments also provide data for creating and analyzing molecular fitness landscapes, which directly map function (phenotypes) to sequence information (genotypes). Given the importance of understanding the relationship between sequence and functional activity, reliable methods to build and analyze fitness landscapes are needed. Here, we present some statistical methods to extract this information from pools of RNA molecules. We also provide new computational tools to construct and study molecular fitness landscapes.
