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

Reverse transcriptase (RT) enzymes are indispensable tools for interrogating diverse aspects of RNA metabolism and transcriptome composition. Due to the growing interest in sequence and structural complexity of long RNA molecules, processive RT enzymes are now required for preserving linkage and information content in mixed populations of transcripts, and the low-processivity RT enzymes that are commercially available cannot meet this need. MarathonRT is encoded within a eubacterial group II intron, and it has been shown to efficiently copy highly structured long RNA molecules in a single pass. In this work, we systematically characterize MarathonRT as a tool enzyme and optimize its performance in a variety of applications that include single-cycle reverse transcription of long RNAs, dimethyl sulfate mutational profiling (DMS-MaP), selective 2'-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension and mutational profiling (SHAPE-MaP), using ultra-long amplicons and the detection of natural RNA base modifications. By diversifying MarathonRT reaction protocols, we provide an upgraded suite of tools for cutting-edge RNA research and clinical application.
