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

Transcription is a fundamental process that mediates the interplay between genetic information and phenotype. Emerging evidence indicates that RNA polymerase II (Pol II) can catalyze transcription using both DNA and RNA templates. It is well established that Pol II initiates de novo transcription on DNA templates. However, it is unclear whether Pol II performs de novo transcription or relies on primers for initiation (primed transcription) on RNA templates. Using potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) as a model, we presented evidence showing that circular PSTVd templates are critical for the synthesis of longer-than-unit-length (-)-strand products, which supports the de novo transcription based on the asymmetric rolling circle model of PSTVd replication. We further showed that the crucial factor for primed transcription, transcription factor IIS (TFIIS), is dispensable for PSTVd replication in cells. Together, our data support the de novo transcription on PSTVd RNA templates catalyzed by Pol II. This result has significant implications in understanding the mechanism and machinery underlying Pol II-catalyzed transcription using other RNA templates.
