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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important regulators of post-transcriptional gene expression. Mature miRNAs are generated from longer transcripts (primary, pri- and precursor, pre-miRNAs) through a series of highly coordinated enzymatic processing steps. The sequence and structure of these pri- and pre-miRNAs play important roles in controlling their processing. Both pri- and pre-miRNAs adopt hairpin structures with imperfect base pairing in the helical stem. Here, we investigated the role of three base pair mismatches (A∙A, G∙A, and C∙A) present in pre-miRNA-31. Using a combination of NMR spectroscopy and thermal denaturation, we found that nucleotides within the three base pair mismatches displayed unique structural properties, including varying dynamics and sensitivity to solution pH. These studies deepen our understanding of how the physical and chemical properties of base pair mismatches influence RNA structural stability.
