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

Hepatitis delta virus (HDV) RNA forms an unbranched rod-like structure and complexes with the delta antigen (HDAg). Host ADAR1-catalyzed RNA editing at the amber/W site of the small HDAg leads to the production of the large HDAg, which inhibits replication and is required for virion assembly. For HDV genotype 1, amber/W editing is controlled by HDAg and the RNA structure immediate vicinity and downstream of the editing site. Here, the effects of 20 mutants carrying an increased length of consecutive base-pairing at various sites in HDV RNA on amber/W site editing were examined. All nine mutants carrying genomic regions that formed up to 15 consecutive base pairs, which is also the maximum length observed in 41 naturally occurring HDV genomes, showed normal editing rate. However, mutants carrying a 16 or 17 consecutive base-paired antigenomic segment located as far as 114 nt upstream could increase editing efficiency, possibly by interfering with HDAg binding. These data show for the first time that extended base-pairing upstream of the amber/W site could increase HDV RNA editing efficiency. Furthermore, it appears that the naturally occurring HDV RNA structures have been selected for suboptimal amber/W RNA editing, which favors the HDV replication cycle.
