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

Among RNAs, transfer RNAs (tRNAs) contain the widest variety of abundant posttranscriptional chemical modifications. These modifications are crucial for tRNAs to participate in protein synthesis, promoting proper tRNA structure and aminoacylation, facilitating anticodon:codon recognition, and ensuring the reading frame maintenance of the ribosome. While tRNA modifications were long thought to be stoichiometric, it is becoming increasingly apparent that these modifications can change dynamically in response to the cellular environment. The ability to broadly characterize the fluctuating tRNA modification landscape will be essential for establishing the molecular level contributions of individual sites of tRNA modification. The locations of modifications within individual tRNA sequences can be mapped using liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). In this approach, a single tRNA species is purified, treated with ribonucleases, and the resulting single-stranded RNA products are subject to LC-MS/MS analysis. The application of LC-MS/MS to study tRNAs is limited by the necessity of analyzing one tRNA at a time, because the digestion of total tRNA mixtures by commercially available ribonucleases produces many short digestion products unable to be uniquely mapped back to a single site within a tRNA. We overcame these limitations by taking advantage of the highly structured nature of tRNAs to prevent the full digestion by single-stranded RNA-specific ribonucleases. Folding total tRNA prior to digestion allowed us to sequence
