2-5A-Mediated decay (2-5AMD): from antiviral defense to control of host RNA.
Review in Critical reviews in biochemistry and molecular biology. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Mammalian cells are exquisitely sensitive to the presence of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA), a molecule that they interpret as a signal of viral presence requiring immediate attention. Upon sensing dsRNA cells activate the innate immune response, which involves transcriptional mechanisms driving inflammation and secretion of interferons (IFNs) and interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), as well as synthesis of RNA-like signaling molecules comprised of three or more 2'-5'-linked adenylates (2-5As). 2-5As were discovered some forty years ago and described as IFN-induced inhibitors of protein synthesis. The efforts of many laboratories, aimed at elucidating the molecular mechanism and function of these mysterious RNA-like signaling oligonucleotides, revealed that 2-5A is a specific ligand for the kinase-family endonuclease RNase L. RNase L decays single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) from viruses and mRNAs (as well as other RNAs) from hosts in a process we proposed to call 2-5A-mediated decay (2-5AMD). During recent years it has become increasingly recognized that 2-5AMD is more than a blunt tool of viral RNA destruction, but a pathway deeply integrated into sensing and regulation of endogenous RNAs. Here we present an overview of recently emerged roles of 2-5AMD in host RNA regulation.
