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

Group II self-splicing introns are large structured RNAs that remove themselves from transcripts while simultaneously sealing the resulting gaps. Some representatives can subsequently reverse splice into DNA, accounting for their pervasive distribution in bacteria. The catalytically active tertiary structure of each group II intron is assembled from six domains that are arranged in a conserved order. Here, we report structural isomers of group II introns, called CP group II ribozymes, wherein the characteristic order of domains has been altered. Domains five and six, which normally reside at the 3' end of group II introns, instead occupy the 5' end to form circularly permuted variants. These unusual group II intron derivatives are catalytically active and generate large linear branched and small circular RNAs, reaction products that are markedly different from those generated by canonical group II introns. The biological role of CP group II ribozymes is currently unknown.
