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 structures and their dynamic fluctuations lie at the heart of understanding key biological process such as transcription, splicing, translation and RNA decay. While conventional bulk assays have proven to identify and characterize key pathway intermediates, the generally dynamic nature of RNA structures renders the information obtained from time and ensemble averaging techniques necessarily lacking in critical details. Here we detail Single-Molecule Kinetic Analysis of RNA Transient Structure (SiM-KARTS), a method that readily monitors structural fluctuations of single RNA molecules through the repetitive interaction of fluorescent probes with an unlabeled, surface-immobilized RNA target of virtually any length and in any biological context. In addition, we demonstrate the broad applicability of SiM-KARTS by kinetically fingerprinting the binding of cognate tRNA ligand to single immobilized T-box riboswitch molecules. SiM-KARTS represents a valuable tool for probing biologically relevant structure and interaction features of potentially many diverse RNA metabolic pathways.
