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

RNA in yeast, especially rRNA and tRNA are heavily modified to fulfill their function in protein translation. Using biosynthetic stable isotope labeled internal standards we quantified 12 modified nucleosides in tRNA from S. cerevisiae over 24 hours. We observed different quantities of modified nucleosides in dependence of the growth phase. To elucidate the underlying mechanism of the observed tRNA modification profile adaptation, it is necessary to distinguish the pre-existing tRNA pool and its modifications from newly-synthesized tRNAs. By combination of 2 differentially isotope labeled media we developed NAIL-MS, nucleic acid isotope labeling coupled mass spectrometry. During the yeast growth cycle we observe dilution of pre-existing tRNAs by newly-synthesized tRNAs by the growing number of cells. tRNA was found to be highly stable with only little degradation over the observed period. The method was further used to quantify the levels of modified nucleosides in the original and new tRNA pools. By addition of deuterium-labeled methionine, we could observe the incorporation of new methyl marks on pre-existing tRNAs. For 2'-O-methylcytidine (Cm) we observed a global increase in log phase. We identified extensive 2'-OH-cytidine methylation of the pre-existing tRNAs and the new tRNAs which masks an actual decrease of pre-existing Cm. In contrast, global 5-methylcytidine (m
