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

Microsporidia are ubiquitous intracellular pathogens whose opportunistic nature led to their increased recognition with the rise of the AIDS pandemic. As the RNA world was largely unexplored in this parasitic lineage, we developed a dedicated in silico methodology to carry out exhaustive identification of ncRNAs across the Encephalitozoon and Nosema genera. Thus, the previously missing U1 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) and small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) targeting only the LSU rRNA were highlighted and were further validated using 5' and 3'RACE-PCR experiments. Overall, the 15 ncRNAs that were found shared between Encephalitozoon and Nosema spp. may represent the minimal core set required for parasitic life. Interestingly, the systematic presence of a CCC- or GGG-like motif in 5' of all ncRNA and mRNA gene transcripts regardless of the RNA polymerase involved suggests that the RNA polymerase machineries in microsporidia species could use common factors. Our data provide additional insights in accordance with the simplification processes observed in these reduce genomes and underline the usefulness of sequencing closely related species to help identify highly divergent ncRNAs in these parasites.
