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

The fidelity of tRNA aminoacylation is a critical determinant for the ultimate accuracy of protein synthesis. Although aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases are assumed to consistently maintain high tRNA charging fidelity, recent evidence has demonstrated that the fidelity of the aminoacylation reaction can be actively regulated and liable to change. Accordingly, the ability to conveniently assay the fidelity of tRNA charging is becoming increasingly relevant for studying mistranslation. Here we describe a combined radioactivity and microarray based method that can quantitatively elucidate which individual cognate or noncognate tRNA isoacceptors are charged with amino acid. In this technique, in vitro tRNA charging reactions or in vivo pulse-labeling is performed using a radiolabeled amino acid and tRNA microarrays are used to distinguish tRNA isoacceptors in total tRNA. During the tRNA array hybridization, each tRNA will hybridize to its unique probe and subsequent phosphorimaging of the array can determine which tRNAs were aminoacylated with the radiolabeled amino acid. The method can be used to assess the fidelity of tRNA charging in vivo or in vitro and can be applied to any organism with annotated tRNA genes.
