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 emergence of cellular compartmentalization was a crucial step in the hypothetical RNA world and its evolution because it would not only prevent the extinction of RNA self-replication systems due to dispersion/diffusion of their components but also facilitate ribozyme reactions by molecular crowding effects. Here, we proposed and examined self-assembly of RNA components as a primitive cellular-like environment, which may have the ability to mimic cellular compartmentalization and crowding effects. We engineered a bimolecular group I ribozyme to form a one-dimensional (1D)-ribozyme assembly. In the 1D assembly form, severe mutations that inactivated the parent bimolecular ribozyme were modestly rescued resulting in weak catalytic ability.
