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

Synthetic riboswitches mediating ligand-dependent RNA cleavage or splicing-modulation represent elegant tools to control gene expression in various applications, including next-generation gene therapy. However, due to the limited understanding of context-dependent structure-function relationships, the identification of functional riboswitches requires large-scale-screening of aptamer-effector-domain designs, which is hampered by the lack of suitable cellular high-throughput methods. Here we describe a fast and broadly applicable method to functionally screen complex riboswitch libraries (~1.8 × 10
