Acquisition of Dual Ribozyme-Functions in Nonfunctional Short Hairpin RNAs through Kissing-Loop Interactions.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
The acquisition of functions via the elongation of nucleotides is an important factor in the development of the RNA world. In our previous study, we found that the introduction of complementary seven-membered kissing loops into inactive R3C ligase ribozymes revived their ligation activity. In this study, we applied the kissing complex formation-induced rearrangement of RNAs to two nonfunctional RNAs by introducing complementary seven-membered loops into each of them. By combining these two forms of RNAs, the ligase activity (derived from the R3C ligase ribozyme) as well as cleavage activity (derived from the hammerhead ribozyme) was obtained. Thus, effective RNA evolution toward the formation of a life system may require the achievement of "multiple" functions via kissing-loop interactions, as indicated in this study. Our results point toward the versatility of kissing-loop interactions in the evolution of RNA, i.e., two small nonfunctional RNAs can gain dual functions via a kissing-loop interaction.
