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

In eukaryotic messenger RNAs, the 5' cap structure binds to the translation initiation factor 4E to facilitate early stages of translation. Although many plant viruses lack the 5' cap structure, some contain cap-independent translation elements (CITEs) in their 3' untranslated region. The PTE (Panicum mosaic virus translation element) class of CITEs contains a G-rich asymmetric bulge and a C-rich helical junction that were proposed to interact via formation of a pseudoknot. SHAPE analysis of PTE homologs reveals a highly reactive guanosine residue within the G-rich region proposed to mediate eukaryotic initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) recognition. Here we have obtained the crystal structure of the PTE from Pea enation mosaic virus 2 (PEMV2) RNA in complex with our structural chaperone, Fab BL3-6. The structure reveals that the G-rich and C-rich regions interact through a complex network of interactions distinct from those expected for a pseudoknot. The motif, which contains a short parallel duplex, provides a structural mechanism for how the guanosine is extruded from the core stack to enable eIF4E recognition. Homologous PTE elements harbor a G-rich bulge and a three-way junction and exhibit covariation at crucial positions, suggesting that the PEMV2 tertiary architecture is conserved among these homologs.
