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

Chemical probing methods are crucial to our understanding of the structure and function of RNA molecules. The majority of chemical methods used to probe RNA structure report on Watson-Crick pairing, but tertiary structure parameters such as solvent accessibility can provide an additional layer of structural information, particularly in RNA-protein complexes. Herein we report the development of Light Activated Structural Examination of RNA by high-throughput sequencing, or LASER-Seq, for measuring RNA structure in cells with deep sequencing. LASER relies on a light-generated nicotinoyl nitrenium ion to form covalent adducts with the C8 position of adenosine and guanosine. Reactivity is governed by the accessibility of C8 to the light-generated probe. We compare structure probing by RT-stop and mutational profiling (MaP), demonstrating that LASER can be integrated with both platforms for RNA structure analyses. We find that LASER reactivity correlates with solvent accessibility across the entire ribosome, and that LASER can be used to rapidly survey for ligand binding sites in an unbiased fashion. LASER has a particular advantage in this last application, as it readily modifies paired nucleotides, enabling the identification of binding sites and conformational changes in highly structured RNA.
