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

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) generated from back-splicing of exons have been found in a wide range of eukaryotic species and exert a variety of biological functions. Unlike canonical splicing, the mechanism of back-splicing has long remained elusive. We recently determined the cryo-EM structure of the yeast spliceosomal E complex assembled on introns, leading us to hypothesize that the same E complex can assemble across an exon forming the exon-definition complex. This complex, when assembled on long exons, goes through the splicing cycle and catalyzes back-splicing to generate circRNAs. Supporting this hypothesis, we purified the yeast post-catalytic spliceosomal P complex (the best complex in the splicing cycle to trap splicing products and intermediates) and detected canonical and back-splicing products as well as splicing intermediates. Here we describe in detail this procedure, which may be applied to other organisms to facilitate research on the biogenesis and regulation of circRNA.
