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

Viroids are non-coding RNA plant pathogens that are characterized by their possession of a high mutation level. Although the sequence heterogeneity in viroid infected plants is well understood, shifts in viroid population dynamics due to mutations over the course of infection remain poorly understood. In this study, the ten most abundant sequence variants of potato spindle tuber viroid RG1 (PSTVd) expressed at different time intervals in PSTVd infected tomato plants were identified by high-throughput sequencing. The sequence variants, forming a quasi-species, were subjected to both the identification of the regions favoring mutations and the effect of the mutations on viroid secondary structure and viroid derived small RNAs (vd-sRNA). At week 1 of PSTVd infection, 25% of the sequence variants were similar to the "master" sequence (i.e., the sequence used for inoculation). The frequency of the master sequence within the population increased to 70% at week 2 after PSTVd infection, and then stabilized for the rest of the disease cycle (i.e., weeks 3 and 4). While some sequence variants were abundant at week 1 after PSTVd infection, they tended to decrease in frequency over time. For example, the variants with insertions at positions 253 or 254, positions that could affect the Loop E as well as the metastable hairpin I structure that has been shown important during replication and viroid infectivity, resulted in decreased frequency.
